LCD touchscreen return to beginning of void loop

Projects Programming

Hi, i am working on a school project where i need to shoot a tennis ball 12 meters into a bucket. I want to aim with steppers and a simple touch on the screen. Now i have a code where i have the setup of the buckets so my idea was to touch on a button, then the 'gun' moves to the right angle and then with a simple second touch that it shoots and then returns to the projected setup. But i don't know how i go back from 6 buttons to 1 and then back to the 6 buttons.
So first you are gonna see a a little explanation of the project, but you can skip that. then you see the setup of the buckets and if you press for example on bucket 1 you will go to a next screen where if you press it again it will shoot (this is not programmed yet but its quite easy) and after that press i want to go back to the screen with all the 6 buckets.

LCD touchscreen terug gaan naar het begin van de void loop

Works with different 'screens'. If on the one button screen the button is pressed, blank the screen and open the 6 button screen. If needed blank that screen and open the screen with one button.

What screen do you use? The strings are pretty large or the font is little. 4" ILI9486 is pretty to use with TFT-eSPI and OpenFontRender. Needs a little more RAM.

I use a tft 480x320 with touchscreen.
i programmed that i have a introduction, after you tab on the introduction you see the 6 buttons. If you tab on 1 of them the screen clears the other buttons except the one you selected. Now what i wanna do is if you touch it a second time that you go back to the page with all the buckets. sorry for the bad explanation but it's hard to explain, also because new am with arduino

*because i am new to arduino

wanna. gonna

  • aren’t Arduino or C++ keywords.

Can you fix those, and also fix your code tags in the original post?

Maybe the sticky Forum Guidelines will help.

i don't use those words in the code

By the touch you must check that the other buttons are enable/disable or visible/not visible. You must only check one if the other are in the same state.

If the buttons are enable or visible, you know it is the first touch. If only one is enable or visible, you know it is the second touch.

Edit: isn't it much easier in the Dutch section?

if i tab on 1 of the buttons they all disappearexcept for the one i tabbed on, i programmed it that all the buttons do the same. I just don't know how i go back to the 'screen' with all the buttons

its like when all the buttons disappear except for that 1 button, if i touch it again only the pressed button comes back and not all of them so there is something wrong in the code

9

what do you mean with this?

10

This

yeah maybe, thx
