This display must be of the Waveshare design and use a 16 bit serial interface based on the 74HC04, 74HC4040 and 2 x 74HC4094 logic chips. A modification to these displays is possible (see mod image in Tools folder) to make many graphics functions much faster (e.g. 23ms to clear the screen, 1.2ms to draw a 72 pixel high numeral). +Some displays permit the internal TFT screen RAM to be read. The library supports reading from ILI9341, ST7789 and ILI9488 SPI displays for the ESP32 and ESP8266. The 8 bit parallel displays used with the ESP32 can usually can be read too. The TFT_Screen_Capture example allows full screens to be captured and sent to a PC, this is handy to create program documentation. + Support has been added recently for Waveshare 2 and 3 colour ePaper displays using full frame buffers. This addition is currently relatively immature and thus only one example has been provided. Further examples will be added soon. The library includes a "Sprite" class, this enables flicker free updates of complex graphics. Direct writes to the TFT with graphics functions are still available, so existing sketches do not need to be changed. diff --git a/library.json b/library.json index 1bba1a1..7c1f70b 100644 --- a/library.json +++ b/library.json @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ { "name": "TFT_eSPI", - "version": "1.2.2", + "version": "1.3.0", "keywords": "tft, ePaper, display, ESP8266, NodeMCU, ESP32, M5Stack, ILI9341, ST7735, ILI9163, S6D02A1, ILI9486, ST7789", "description": "A TFT and ePaper SPI graphics library for ESP8266 and ESP32", "repository": diff --git a/library.properties b/library.properties index a2a1260..a4d6b9b 100644 --- a/library.properties +++ b/library.properties @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ name=TFT_eSPI -version=1.2.2 +version=1.3.0 author=Bodmer maintainer=Bodmer sentence=A fast TFT graphics library for ESP8266 and ESP32 processors for the Arduino IDE
