Does contacts ever go back to 0 if you stop touching the screen? If so you can have a flag like “isTouched” that basically says “ok the screen was touched, now ignore any other touches” Then if contacts is equal to 0 then reset the “isTouched” flag.

when is touched, the value goes 0101010 Can you show me an example of “isTouched”? Thanks

bool isTouched = false; // global variable then inside “if (contacts > 0) “ isTouched = true; Now you add your other logic inside if (isTouched) { “Your logic here” } if(contacts == 0) { isTouched = false; } Sorry it’s not easy to type all this out on my phone

I tried, but it still gives me lots of changes: #include "Arduino_GigaDisplay_GFX.h" #include "Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch.h" GigaDisplay_GFX display; Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch touchDetector; #define BLACK 0x0000 #define RED 0xD105 #define WHITE 0xffff #define GREEN 0x67E0 #define BLUE 0x001F #define …

Interesting, can you print contacts and see what it returns? Is it what is returning 010101? I am not familiar with the Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch library so I don’t know what flags it has or how best to use it.

It seems you are getting the correct information, but need to ignore multiple identical values. This is NOT the same as debouncing a mechanical switch. Save the initial value and ignore duplicates until a different value is returned.

Try this. Please note it is not 100% optimal as more can be done to improve it. #include "Arduino_GigaDisplay_GFX.h" #include "Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch.h" GigaDisplay_GFX display; Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch touchDetector; constexpr uint16_t BLACK = 0x0000; constexpr uint16_t RED = 0xD105; constexpr …

That didn’t do it . Thanks for trying I get 12:23:56.612 -> 0 12:23:56.644 -> 1 12:23:56.675 -> 0 12:23:56.675 -> 1 12:23:56.708 -> 0 I found a debounced method based on recording millis(). It works but if the button is continuously pressed, the state changes at the end of the interval, S…

Please post sketches here rather than attaching them

sorry here is the code #include "Arduino_GigaDisplay_GFX.h" #include "Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch.h" GigaDisplay_GFX display; Arduino_GigaDisplayTouch touchDetector; #define BLACK 0x0000 #define RED 0xD105 #define WHITE 0xffff #define GREEN 0x67E0 #define BLUE 0x001F #define CYAN 0x07FF #de…
