Well, the
ILITEK ILI9341
specifications tells us another story - so you think that there are displays in the wild which do not support all the abilities the driver chip provides? This is bad new ... But I do not understand why there are modules available which provides agetPixel(x,y)
function - so the function will not work at all, even in the module atatched here by @DaveNI - this is puzzling. But ok, so I will switch to "plan B" ... ;-)BTW: did I mention that I love the Espruino? Great piece of work ... tiny, easy to handle, extremely flexible ... it's my
IoT
favorite ...P.S.: After reading again also in the
teensy
forum, Paul Stoffregen is claiming that thereadPixel
function will work correctly ... I'll give it a try with myteensy 3.1

Unfortunately not ...
getPixel
tries to achieve the color at the given coordinatesx, y
, whilegetBgColor()
has no coordinates as parameters at all. ThegetPixel
return value is always[255,255,255]
not being aware of the selected color format.I've looked through a dozen sources of different
ILI9371
drivers in the net - and compared to the implementation the code seems pretty correct. So it's not easy to analyze where the unuseable return values are from. I guess this might be a slightly wrong setting of the display mode, so it returns only thewhite
color. -
Ok, it's an old thread, but the question is still remaining ...
@DaveNI nice work with your faster display code!
But there is one problem: when writing text, the background is always white, because of the fact that the call of "getPixel" always returns "(255,255,255)". Is there any solution in sight?
