I prefer buttons and would love to see a version of this menu system for an OLED display. Great video.
@rexheck6 жыл бұрын
Jon Vannatto you can apply buttons and an oled screen to this concept. I just stumbled across this video looking to make a menu for my oled prject. The links are key here. Adafruit gfx also works with oled. Also buttons are fairly similar to rotary encoders, just less exciting 🤣🤙

I think that a "state machine" would be much more easy to follow than raw `if-then-else` blocks.
@edwatters63777 жыл бұрын
Nice job... It gives you the option to reduce the number of buttons on a complex project. Setting month, day, year, hour, minute & second on a clock project becomes very easy for an end user.

Awesome. Now I have to build another project using the rotary encoder. I'm already working on a power supply that uses your button tutorial for the display. If I hadn't already designed and built the enclosure I would probably use the encoder instead of buttons. A rotating knob is more natural for a percentage type of variable like voltage or current output, in my opinion.
@UpcycleElectronics7 жыл бұрын
Also, it's easy to salvage a rotary encoder from a computer mouse. The upper rubberized scroll wheel is a rotary encoder. If you cut out the plastic that it's mounted to, it also has a push button under it.

would probably function better too. I have a couple cheap encoders and they don't work so well.

Most difficult solution seen, and it works, congrats, this code can at least be halved and still works My professor at varsity always said if you want a difficult answer ask a student. I first tried to understand the flow before changing it, and it was really difficult. A few switch statements and whala .. if then elseif have priority and is extremely difficult to read, but switch statements can easily be read if used in a state machine, even more if enums is used instead for constants (0,1,2,.. 6).

Good stuff. Can I offer a suggestion. For fixed menus, you might want to consider using the F macro to save RAM and store in flash memory, e.g. String menuItem1 = F("Contrast"); and so on, otherwise you can start eating up precious RAM in more complex projects just for the menus themselves.

Great video, I like encoders because I can purpose them for other things, like speed of motors. Buttons are ok also depending on how many you want to use. One question, wouldn't a switch case statement help better with menu items?

This is a brilliant menu, and it works perfectly on an OLED module with very few modifications to the code. I just have a small request. I want to build a nested menu system. For example, if I select contrast, I should see one more menu similar to the first menu. Can you help me with a minimalistic code example? Thanks!

Nice project. I can see value in both buttons and the rotary encoder approach. It sounds like the source isn't up yet so I can only see what was shown in the video. I wonder why not use an array of strings for the menu item text rather than separate variables (menuItem1...)? I am an experienced programmer, but new to Arduino. The Arduino IDE seems primitive in some ways. Maybe I don't fully understand how best to use it. It doesn't seem to have any concept of a Project. If I switch micro-controllers I seem to have to change a bunch of global settings. I feel like there should be some way to save the settings in a project. Also there isn't anything like intellisense (context aware code completion). As someone new to the platform code completion would be very helpful. Do these features exist in the official Arduino IDE? I understand there are alternate IDEs that have have some of these features but I haven't explored them yet. Do you have any recommendations? This might be an interesting topic for a future video: Better Arduino IDE alternatives.
@Educ8s7 жыл бұрын
Hello friend, thank you very much for your comment. Unfortunately I didn't upload the corrent code file and now I am away from office. I will upload the correct one soon. I used seperate variables for the menu items in an effort to make the code easier to understand to people new to programming. Since most of the viewers of the channel have small coding experience I try to make the code as easy as possible to understand. Yes, the Arduino IDE is primitive, I miss the code completion as well. I haven't used any other IDE for the Arduino so far. It is a good idea to try different IDEs for Arduino development. Cheers
@HelmutHassfurther5 жыл бұрын
the contrast should be set to values between 52 and 67 (varies from display to display) during setup, otherwise nothing is visible from the menu.

Hi Nick, This is really great option indeed, similar to my in-vehicle infotainment system (control). The complex code is very well simplified here, I must say! I would like to see "Incremental Optical Rotary encoder" with stepper motor (i.e. in close - loop ckt/feedback) to determine any movement of shaft (stepper motor's shaft) when motor is in ideal state and its direction like clock-wise or anti-clock-wise. The cost of the project / POC (Proof of Concept) could be on higher side, but would be fun and challenging. Thank You, BR, Ambarish

I just looked at your code, can't believe you don't stick to such common sense practice such as defining the pins with names at the beginning, to make it more readable and easier to modify for other Arduinos, or slight variations in the connection scheme... Would you mind creating this update? Or since I am working on it would you like me to send you my version? Like this: #define BacklightPin 7 // pin controlling the backlight LED Then use BacklightPin wherever in your code you use 7 to indicate that pin - this is just general good practice, you should always do it like that! By the way would it be reasonable to use PWM to control the brightness of the backlight LED?
