Touch screen support

Open ciobania opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

I'm new to the LCDs IoT, and struggling with few touch screens for a project. I'm unable to understand if that is currently implemented, from what I read in the ili9341xnew.py

I have two questions:

  1. Is the current driver supporting touch screens?
  2. Is the current driver providing support for writing images to the Framebuffer? (I don't understand where that library comes from)

Thank you for your help and support with this!

It does not support a touch controller. There is support for a touch controller in the Adafruit circuit Python libraries.

Frame buffer is a standard Micropython module.

will the adafruit circuitpython touch libraries be able to be ported to micropython?

I have no plans to port it but it would not be difficult. There are examples of touch driver modules in my Twatch repository.
