How to program TTGO T-Display - PART3 (Images and Custom Fonts)

[@electechyt]

I watched all 3 videos, fantastic! Thank you for the full explanation, you make it easy to learn.

[@chrisw1462]

Watched the first three so far. I'm an experienced programmer, and I think your videos are great for beginners! Just dug my T-Display out of the parts bin and started playing with it again, and now I have enough knowledge to modify the examples and work on my own sketches. Thanks!

[@marcelverhoeven3514]

Well done!!! And it all works on my side too!

[@lonely_shadow9985]

Greetings from Romania, I currently have a nodemcu esp8266, i`m going to order soon a TTGO board like this. I love your content and can`t wait to learn more from this channel ! Keep up the good work 🤩

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you😀

[@RicardoPenders]

This is super interesting and I love these series too, you make it so easy. Thanks a lot for sharing this online.

[@randynelson4472]

Great series of videos! They helped me create a custom font that allowed me to scale text to fill my 240x320 display that I can now see from a distance

[@FilippoBilardo]

Thanks, great explanation. Could you please explain to me how to make a menu with the ttgo display board

[@Fahrenheit20000]

Excellent video thank you very much for sharing your knowledge

[@donjackson3520]

Excellent video series, a big help in getting started with the TTGO board.

[@SolehAlYunus]

First! Great Projects 😍🔥

[@jimsnodgrass8454]

Its starting to get interesting But I wish you would put a link to Part 4 in the description since with so many vids it's hard to find when it doesn't que up automatically.

[@Jackie-sg8es]

Great videos. Narration and videos are easy to read and follow. A good pace for beginners. Thank you.

[@daveholden3935]

Clear instructional video - thanks

[@odivergente388]

Very good, my friend! Thansk for teach!

[@erice3910]

Thank you for the tutorial, great basis to start with

[@davi5music521]

Is this work for display some INT value in loop? When I try it Still try to print it and looks bad.. but when I use standard font it Works ok

[@VMGChannel]

Good tutorial series. Waiting for more! Subscribed 😁

[@VolosProjects]

Tnx man 😀

[@TheRealFrankWizza]

I am happy to see you found some online utilities. In some older video, you were using some file that you made to convert images. It was an exe file, and I am using linux. Thanks!

[@destroyeris3k]

such a great series! best of luck with your channel, subbed :)

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you😀

[@rupash88]

Learning alot and keep it up.

[@chipko]

Another awesome video! Thank you!

[@mathewtomy3823]

Hi sir, could you please continue this tutorial series by explaining more functions in this library

[@syedabidaliabdi1273]

I didn't test but as per your video. It looks very easy. I'll check on my TFT which is not TTGO but I am sure it will works on it because rest of all other code tested on it but no luck.

[@syedabidaliabdi1273]

Facing issue on : tft.pushImage(0,0,128.128, house); Error in above line Compilation error: no matching function for call to 'TFT_eSPI::pushImage(int, int, double, const short unsigned int [16384])'

[@electronic7979]

Nice project 👍

[@engineeredessentials6660]

Please do a part 4!

[@VincentVeak]

I just wanted to say thank you for teaching newbies like me the basics in a simple and well paced format. It's so hard to find good content for people brand new to micro controllers and your videos have single handedly driven my interest in this hobby and I cannot thank you enough! P.S. to you or anyone in the comments: is the best way to clear an image just to draw over it with a rectangle that's the same color as your background, or is there a better or more efficient way? I've noticed that sometimes I get a little shadow or like a ghost image when I do this with a non-black background

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you, i am glad my videos are useful to you.

[@mvvs35]

Thank you very good explanation, I have a problem when using Custom Fonts within the loop a flicker occurs. Any idea what the problem could be? Thank you !!

[@williamwebb2042]

excellent video. Does anyone have a suggestion on an easy way to get the degree symbol, "°" . Even the custom fonts don't have it.

[@williamwebb2042]

I found a solution but its ugly. auto temperature = String(temp,1) + " F"; tft.drawString(temperature, 15, 30); int placeCircle = 8 + 15 + ( ( String(temp,1).length() ) * 8 ); // each character is 8 pixels wide tft.drawCircle(placeCircle,35,3,TFT_RED);

[@markmccornack7983]

This is a great series! Very clear and informative. This information you covered is essential core stuff that was otherwise quite difficult to find on line. By the way, your English is very good too, so don't think you're not clear to English speakers. Above all, your presentation technique is very clear. As a side note, are you aware of any methods for putting text on the t-display in Landscape mode rather than Portrait mode (i.e. rotate it 90 degrees)?

[@VolosProjects]

Thank you Mark, you can rotate whole screen with tft.setRptation(1) number 1 is orjentatio you can set any number between 0 and 4

[@NelsonSantander]

Excellent 💯!!!!!

[@ectechtelecom2471]

Hello, how are you? How would you use two images and use a button to switch between the images?

[@TRETT1956]

Well done - thanks Werner

[@IsaGatica]

Hi thanks for the tutorials! One question, is it possible to avoid blinking with created fonts?

[@VolosProjects]

yes you can use sprites to avoid flickering, you can check, i have video on my chanell

[@IsaGatica]

@@VolosProjects Great, thank you!

[@mrobarton7192]

GREAT JOB!

[@jamesreddy2188]

Thanks for the great tutorials. I have a problem displaying the image house I get size of array is to large. It is set at the image size 128,128. Any ideas? Sorry my mistake the board was set for UNO. Works great thanks again for the tutorials.

[@VolosProjects]

Are you sure that size of image is 128 by 128. Did you use same image like me or you downloaded some other image of house

[@jamesreddy2188]

@@VolosProjects Thank you apologies it was my mistake I must have change my board in the board manger to UNO when I set it back to Togo it works perfectly. Great utility you found to convert images.

[@rickharms1]

I watched all three videos, but I want to try this on an Adaruit Feather display. Of course, the original does not work. My question, how does your code identify the display type? I have examined the various .h files within the TFT_eSPI.h core, my display is included, but I do not know how to implement it. So, again, how does your code identify the display? ONce I understand that, I think I can modify the settings to function with my display. Thank you

[@robertrobert5583]

Thanks - excellent

[@DanialADHOfficial]

its not detecting my .H file in libary to include into the code.. any workaround to make this works?

[@L.Periotto]

Thank you for video's

[@hikirj]

Thank you very much!

[@Ingo.01]

You are the best!

[@petermoore9504]

I found the custom fonts flicker in a way the bodmer ones don't, something to do with adafruit fonts being transparent. Do you know a fix for this? Great tutorials thank you.

[@MPElectronique]

Bravo et Merci! :)

[@TheRealFrankWizza]

What libraries do I need to be able to use the font. My compiler gives an error Rock_Salt_Regular20 is not declared in this scope. I installed and included the adafruit GFX library and it gives an error about not being able to fine a grey OLED I2c Device. Edit: I figured it out. All of the stuff needed is in the TFT_eSPI Library. The problem was I was calling the font header file before calling the tft library.

[@masteruozy4268]

you are very good , i will make some of your projects , i like to post them , and post the link to your youtube channel as the Original Project

[@VolosProjects]

Feel free to do that.tnx

[@walterhynson2898]

I am using Arduino version 2.04 and it will not allow you to paste .h file into the arduino sketch folder anymore,however if you look at" TFT_eSPI/examples/480 x 320/TFT_flash_jpg/TFT_flash_jpg.ino" by Bodmer there is a different way to achieve this very simular to the UTFTway I did some years agousing parelllel display and arduino mega. Yours works because you are using 1.8.12 but when you update it will not work.

[@joestanco4341]

The videos have been great. However I hvae a problem, I set up everything as instructed, but I get an error when compiling That says " house was not declared in this scope" Can't figure out what is causing this. My house.h file gets attached to the program file.

[@VolosProjects]

Is house.h in same folder as .ini file, please check this

[@joestanco4341]

@@VolosProjects It is in the same folder as the .ino file and appears in a tab one ardunio IDE.

[@joestanco4341]

@@VolosProjects Got it working Thanks.

[@KevCoLabs]

@@joestanco4341How did you get it to work? I'm running into the same issue.

[@KevCoLabs]

Turns out I renamed the image file after converting it on the rinky-dink electronics site. The original file name is hardcoded in the converted file, so if you rename it, the compiler won't know, and will be looking for that original file name. It will fail since that file name no longer exists.

[@Blink-ut7uh]

Is there a way to change the size of the custom font? Would appreciate it!

[@VolosProjects]

yes, on page i usesd to generate font you can chose size
