Problem with Pins allocation for "Arduino 3.2'' TFT LCD Touch shields

Projects Programming
1

Hello All,

Not an expert so please forgive me for the elementary questions...

I have an Arduino Mega with the "Arduino 3.2" TFT LCD Touch Screen. The LCD is working fine with the attached code but when i try to put Shield stacking heads between the Shield and the arduino board to try to free out some pins the board stops to work. the board is lighted but no sign of what should be displayed.

I am suspecting I am not mapping all the PINS correctly. From the code i believe these are the only one being used:

UTFT myGLCD(SSD1289,38,39,40,41); //Parameters should be adjusted to your Display/Schield model
UTouch myTouch( 6, 5, 4, 3, 2);

and ofcourse the +5V and gnd.

Any suggestions please ?

Thank you for helping.

just a question, but shouldn't we see these pins declared in the code somewhere?
