+To minimise effort to resolve issues the following should be provided as a minimum:
+1. Procesor, e.g RP2040, ESP32 S3 etc
+2. TFT_eSPI library version (try the latest, the problem may have been resolved!)
+3. IDE (e.g. Arduino or PlatformIO)
+4. Board package version (e.g. 2.0.3)
+5. TFT driver (e.g. ILI9341), a link to the vendors product web page is useful too.
+
+Plus further information as appropriate to the problem:
+6. TFT to processor connections used
+7. A zip file containing your setup file (just drag and drop in message window - do not paste in long files!)
+8. A zip file  containing a simple and complete example sketch that demonstrates the problem but needs no special hardware sensors or libraries.
+9. A description of the problem and the conditions that cause it to occur
+10. Screen shot pictures showing the problem  (just drag and drop in message window)
+
+The idea is to provide sufficient information so I can setup the exact same scenario to investigate and resolve the issue.
+
+Put three ticks ( ` chracter on key next to "1") at the start and end of short pasted code segments to avoid format/markup anolmolies and to use a monspaced font. Example:
+
+```
+  Serial.begin(115200);
+  tft.init();
+```
