Hi Everyone,
I am new to Programming, Arduino's and working with displays. This is my first post so please forgive any novice-like comments.
I am using a 2.8inch mcufriend UNO R3 Shield. It was bought from amazon and I have included a snapshot of it in the attachments.
Additionally, the pin connections are attached (These were the connections made by another individual for a different screen but works also for the 2.8' shield).
For the first 2 weeks all that was displaying was a white screen. To solve that issue I found my ID and edited mcufriend-shield and special.
ReadID() finds: ID = 0X4747
Himax HX8347-D controller.
Editing MCUFRIEND_kbv.cpp to include #define SUPPORT_8347D was what finally enabled the graphicstest to work on my display.
However, if you look in the attachments, you may see that the multiple graphics layer on top of each other. Typically in the graphics test, some fancy artwork will appear and then disappear and then be replaced by another fancy graphic. In my case, the graphic is just topped with other graphics and are all meshed onto one screen.
My question is whether anyone knows how I can clear the screen after each graphic?
Or could anyone point me in a direction to get the graphicstest working smoothly on my display.
Again, many apologies if I have not provided enough or more concise information.
Regards,
Laurence
