Quick update: Here is my updated code running their Example for ST7796S_demo
example using Arduino IDE:
The only thing I changed in the example were the pin numbers, which
I currently have it setup for:
#define TFT_CS 2
#define TFT_RST 3 // Or set to -1 and connect to Arduino RESET pin
#define TFT_DC 4
As for how to get it to how to use it with applab, others like @ptillish are
better at telling you how... I will try on mine to copy it in the same way I did
my own custom libraries, by using KiTTy and WinSCP (mentioned elsewhere).
I will try by it by making a copy of my test app up there which is a Touch paint
using ST7796 and XPT2046 touch... However currently I have a Capacitive touch
display connected so will either go back to the other display or see about if
the capactive stuff is working
