Hi,
I am using tft lcd 3.5 inch ILI9486 to display text. I try to test the LCD using command tft.fillscreen(). However the screen change colour only at selected area only. Even the screen keep shaking and not clear. How should I do to make sure the colour cover all the area of screen? thank you
What is the resolution of your screen ? how have you defined it in your code ? where is your code can we have a look (don't forget about the code-tags pls..)
mine is 320x480 resolution
#include <Adafruit_TFTLCD.h>
#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <TouchScreen.h>
#define LCD_CS A3
#define LCD_CD A2
#define LCD_WR A1
#define LCD_RD A0
#define LCD_RESET A4
#define TS_MINX 646
#define TS_MINY 952
#define TS_MAXX 512
#define TS_MAXY 210
#define YP A3
#define XM A2
#define YM 9
#define XP 8
#define BLACK 0x0000
#define BLUE 0x001F
#define RED 0xF800
#define GREEN 0x07E0
#define CYAN 0x07FF
#define MAGENTA 0xF81F
#define YELLOW 0xFFE0
#define WHITE 0xFFFF
Adafruit_TFTLCD tft(LCD_CS, LCD_CD, LCD_WR, LCD_RD, LCD_RESET);
TouchScreen ts = TouchScreen(XP, YP, XM, YM, 364);
boolean buttonEnabled = true;
void setup() {
tft.reset();
tft.begin(0x9341);//9341
tft.setRotation(1);
tft.fillScreen(BLUE);}
And what do the functions
uint16_t width();
uint16_t height();
return as values to you ?
I try it and I got width-320, height-240. How to make height become 480? And it is it normally for range of TS_MINX TS_MAXX etc to be small. I try to calibrate but nothing happen.
The TS_MINX TS_MAXS TS_MNY & TS_MAXY values actually look reasonable to me, but they are specific to each shield's touchscreen. First you have set your TFT width and heigth, to do this open the Adafruit_TFTLCD.cpp file in your libraries folder and change these 4 lines
//#define TFTWIDTH 320
//#define TFTHEIGHT 480
#define TFTWIDTH 240
#define TFTHEIGHT 320
so that the other 2 or commented out. (or change the constructor to take to more arguments that set these values in the adafruit_GFX constructor that is being called)
Yeahh. I'm finally get it. thank you for your help.
