TeensyUserInterface update to support ST7796

[mjs513]

Checking in to see if there is a plan to eventually roll this new slider functionality into the TeensyUserInterface library?

Evening Ken

Actually started on that but then got pulled away to work on resolving issues on a zephyr or I was working on. Taking a lot longer than I expected. No need to go into the gory details.

Hopefully will get back to it soon.

Ok - got it working. Still has the issue with the extraneous text bits but thats next I guess. Sorry @defragster. Working on myedits branch got confused with the repos. But should be a drop and replace.

Here is the link

GitHub - mjs513/TeensyUserInterface at my_edits

EDIT: Forgot to mention I added Example 11 that shows how to use it.

@mjs513 I'm impressed! With the Uno Q hitting everyone's doorstep I figured this would be lost in the shuffle for quite awhile, so thanks for pushing a release out.

i will definitely be checking it out and I think it will prove to be a pretty useful tool.

Synced up, may have to play with it soon.

thanks Ken

Yep I have the Q as well but its going to be step learning curve especially since not all support is in place. Besides the library has been on my to do list and I hate having it still open so wanted to at least getting it operational before any thing else

Hope you find it useful.

I did a git sync - will see about looking into it.

Yes, I got the uno-Q and decided to power it up - left breadcrumbs as there was no easy path like some in history of ARDUINO might have had

Not sure what or why is next - given the SBC + STM with linux + arduino it will be a curvy path to follow and then to figure out what and why after how.

Morning all
Was just trying release 1.60 and having issues with the ST7796 use with the library. All of a sudden getting errors like

c:/users/merli/appdata/local/arduino15/packages/teensy/tools/teensy-compile/11.3.1/arm/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/11.3.1/../../../../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld.exe: C:\Users\Merli\AppData\Local\arduino\sketches\49F4C7182FAE00157DF63F193F84A5B0\libraries\TeensyUserInterface-master\TeensyUserInterface.cpp.o: in function `TeensyUserInterface::lcdSetFont(ILI9341_t3_font_t const&)':

just a heads up. Still investigating.

Ok PR to change .a linkage to false was never incorporated so to make it work you need to manually change it.

Looks like Paul pulled it in at the last moment...
