UTFT library reading SD card without reference to its pins

Using Arduino Displays
#1

Hello everyone and thanks for your trouble,

I am using a 16 bit QR4 5521S01

(bought it from: http://www.digibay.in/3-2in-tft-lcd-board-240x320-w-sd-slot-touch-panel)

touchscreen graphical LCD with a SSD1289

(datasheet: http://www.digibay.in/documents/TFT_LCD_Controller-SSD1289_datasheet.pdf )

display controller and a XPT2046

(datasheet: http://www.digibay.in/documents/Touch_Screen_Controller_XPT2046.pdf)

touchscreen controller. It has a SPI controlled SD card interface. There is a library called UTFT_tinyFAT

(Electronics - Henning Karlsen)

which uses the UTFT library
(Electronics - Henning Karlsen)

to take data from the SD card and display the .raw file. However it is just using the UTFT object and not the SD SPI pins. The UTFT object is also not taking the SPI pins. Does anyone know how the UTFT_tinyFAT library actually does this without the SPI?

Any help will be very greatly appreciated!

Quick notice - the UTFT_tinyFAT library uses the tinyFAT

(Electronics - Henning Karlsen)

library. It has some specific pin numbers except for SS. In order for the UTFT_tinyFAT object to know that, it needs to have a refernce to the tinyFAT object. But it does not take the reference. How does it take the bitmaps?

I can't help you with your problem but it would be easier for those who can if you could re-organize your initial post (using the
MODIFY BUTTON in the upper right of the screen) in more orderly fashion and combine it with the second post .
Create
bold underline labels
[put link here]

bold underline labels
[put link here]

bold underline labels
[put link here]

etc....

If you do that the people who can help you will be able to read the information easier and won't have to sift through a bunch of
links all run together.
Just a suggestion. You can take it or leave it.

Ya thanks that made it look way neater! However I could not combine the posts.
