I am trying to generate a basic example for a wt32-sc01 device through Arduino.
Within Arduino I have the board set to esp32-wrover
I have attached the TCmenu .emf file

The screen is just white. I am using the TFT_eSPI display driver because I have used that library with other projects successfully on this device.

Not sure if there is some other information I can provide.

Thanks.

Have you tried one of the tft espi examples and checked that the example works? Most issues like this are board / display setup.

Hi thanks for the response.

I ran the esps3tftEncoder project and got it to display (which is great). Though, I couldn't get the touch screen to work

I then compiled the esp32Amplifier project but it complained about "ILI9341_WHITE" was not declared in this scope. I guess I need to link to the ST7796 driver somehow?

When I'm doing my testing, I have a wider range of libraries installed, so if I have an accidental inclusion of something like that, it would work. Just replace that with RGB(255, 255, 255). Thanks for pointing out and I'll fix it.

For touch screen, there are a few supported devices that we test regularly with:

1. Two common touch libraries https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/XPT2046_Touchscreen and https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_FT6206_Library
2. Resistive touch screen - no library is needed for this, the support is directly within tcMenu
3. On STM32 the HAL/BSP native touch functions are supported.

It is really easy to write another driver, most of the code is broken out from the coordinate acquisition.

An on that note, I'll add support for the TFT_eSPI touch functions directly, as many people have asked for it now. As 3.0 is being tested now its too late, I'll add it to 3.1
