ridhoazhar313 · July 27, 2021, 8:02am

hi there,i was learn using u8g2 lib,and i search on each website tutorial for ,and my problem happen,when i add font to the logo bitmap where my oled becomes flashing everythime.
this is flshing image problem in my oled:

and this is my code:

#include <U8g2lib.h>
#include <U8x8lib.h>

// This is the display object. You will change this line if you are using pins
// other that 12, 11, 9 and 10.
//U8G2_SSD1306_128X64_NONAME_F_4W_SW_SPI display(U8G2_R0, 12, 11, U8X8_PIN_NONE, 9, 10);
//U8X8_SSD1306_128X64_NONAME_HW_I2C u8x8(/* reset=*/ U8X8_PIN_NONE);   
U8G2_SSD1306_128X64_NONAME_F_HW_I2C u8g2(U8G2_R0, /* reset=*/ U8X8_PIN_NONE);

// This is the battery bitmap
static unsigned char battery_bitmap[] = {

You clear the buffer, draw your text and then send it. There is no battery image in the buffer.
You then call your showBatteryLevel() which clears the buffer, draws the battery and then sends it with no text present.

You need to draw it ALL into the buffer, text and battery, and then send it.
