Hi everyone, I am working on a Arduino project where the board needs to take different inputs from the user, that are provided thru external buttons of an additional board. The issue that I have is that I actually don’t know how to code a user interface with different levels of menus and submenus.…

[image] lucatrusso14: The approach I followed uses nested while cycles (set to true) to wait the button to be pressed. When one of the buttons is pressed, an if statement detects that, leading into another while-true loop You could use a state machine , at least to remember which top level men…

[image] lucatrusso14: To sum up, the basic question behind this post is: Is there a way to design a menu-like structure (like the settings of old Nokia phones, for instance) using simple Arduino coding? If so, how? I've seen this referenced a few times but have not used it myself: GEM (Good E…

Thank you everyone for the answers. The right keyword, “LCD Menu”, is what I was missing. This opened a lot of possible answers. Looking forward to try them all. Best Luca

have a look at using an LCD and a QEI rotary encoder clockwise and anticlockwise rotation scrolls up/down menu and press selects the menu item have a look at encoder library
