Adafruit SSD1351 library question - scrolling

Projects Programming
1

I am running a 1351 OLED and using the following libraries

#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <Adafruit_SSD1351.h>

In the examples in my libraries all commands to the display start with tft. such as;

tft.begin();
  tft.setRotation(2);
  tft.fillRect(0, 0, 128, 128, BLACK);

I am trying to work out of the library has a scroll text function but looking online I can only see scroll functions for this type of display using functions that start with 'display' instead of 'tft'.

Is there a new library where 'display' is replacing 'tft' for everything?

How can I generate scrolling using my library?

tft probably refers to the name of the object created by the sketch If so, it could just as well be called display or tom, dick or harry for that matter, so feel free to use tft.scroll() or whatever the function is called, instead of display.scroll() in your sketch

For more help please post a complete sketch which, with your number of previous posts I am surprised you did not do in the first place

Sorry i dont have a sketch yet it was just a starter question as I am still learning how to understand libraries.

I will try what you have said and do some more reading.

Thanks

The library almost certainly comes with examples. Try those first
