When the 'contact us' button is pressed it goes to a sub menu with a 'menu' button at the top. When the 'menu' button is pressed it should go back to the HomeScreen.
I think I've got the '{ & }' wrong. Not quite sure.

Any help would be appreciated to get this working.

Thanks in advance

Get rid of the superfluous braces, reformat the code using the IDE's autoformat, repost, so we can see the wood for the trees.

The way you answer questions say a lot about your character.

The way you format code says just as much.

fnb111 · June 15, 2018, 1:10pm

This is the auto formatted version

system · June 15, 2018, 1:12pm

But it has superfluous braces

fnb111 · June 16, 2018, 12:40am

Like I said it could be the braces. Im not sure. The program is stuck in the

  if (currentPage == '1') {
      Serial.print("correct ...........location but");
      // menu button  co-ords[code] loop and I dont know how to fix it.

Ive tried placing the braces in other areas without any success.

I need some expert help please.
Thanks

arduino_new · June 16, 2018, 2:11am

try to do this:

             HomeScreen();
             //currentPage = '0';
        }
      }
      currentPage = '0';

fnb111 · June 16, 2018, 3:21am

NO. It did not fix the problem. The second 'loop' for the sub menu is not working. The program does not respond to the button press although the program is in the sub menu.

fnb111 · June 16, 2018, 3:26am

In #3 I've been told that the braces is superfluous. Reducing them and the program does not compile.

I've deleted the 'currentPage' sections and lesson the braces.The main screen is now reacting when the 'menu' button is pressed.

Please help me as this is doing my head in.

Superfluous brace.

fnb111 · June 18, 2018, 8:43am

Thanks, but that caused the program to goto line 151 & print 'correct ...........location but' all the time whent I read the serial monitor.

system · June 18, 2018, 8:57am

Removing that brace (and its partner) should have no effect on the flow of the code.

fnb111 · June 18, 2018, 9:06am

The serial monitor print this continuously:

correct ...........location but
correct ...........location but

Ive tested the sub menu (when the 'about us' button is pushed in the HomeScreen) and it does go to the 'sub menu'' area. Still stuck there as the 'menu' button does not return me to the HomeScreen.

Is there another way/ approach to write a sub menu?

Thanks

fnb111 · June 20, 2018, 7:45am

I've managed to 'sort off' fixed the problem by disabling the buttonEnable section. The program does go to the sub menu (jipeeee) BUT ALL the touch points/buttons are also available in the sub menu.

Not sure how to fix it though so I placed >> . Now the sub menu can be accessed from ALL the screens. Not ideal but it works (sort off)
