Updated to latest TFT_eSPI Library - Still cant go larger than 320x170. Should be 320x240.

[dookie454]

Hello, GREAT library! Been using it for while, no problems with standard fonts, on two different pages, decided to make a third page and include a Sprite in my ILI9341_DRIVER 240x320 display. I got my Sprite Graph working somewhat, but ran into two problems..

1. I am limited to: 320x170... if I make the 170 any larger and the entire sprite screen doesn't work, just stays blank with whatever I had on it from the previous screen. I need 320x240, that should be the size of my screen. With 170, I get fhe full width but the height is only 60%, the bottom of the sprite is cut off. Code: sprite.createSprite(320, 170);

#2 shown below is fixed.. so ignore this!
2) I decided to update to this latest library to see if that would fix the sprite problem, now I get Errors, these are them:
Error 1: 'class TFT_eSPI' has no member named 'getTouch'. Code: if (tft.getTouch(&x, &y))
Error 2: 'class TFT_eSPI' has no member named 'calibrateTouch'. Code: tft.calibrateTouch(calData, TFT_MAGENTA, TFT_BLACK, 15);
Error 3: 'class TFT_eSPI' has no member named 'setTouch'. Code: tft.setTouch(calData);

Any help with these would be hugely appreciated!!!

LATEST UPDATE: Fixed Problem #2 (compile errors) by updating the files Lebo77 mentioned, but still the big problem is still here, I cannot get the full screen working, limited to 320x170, nothing higher works. Should be 320x240.

You need to re-set your user config file. You overwrote it when you upgraded.

well I tried the new examples included in the new library, the simple ones like Touch_Calibrate.. and they error for the same reasons. So, what went wrong here?

Update.. I did copy the settings I had in User_Setup.h, which was only the pin configuration, and yes, that seemed to fix it! I didnt think that part would matter!! THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, still having the 320x170 limitation, I cant get anything larger than 170 to work . Any ideas??

Sprite sizes are limited by the RAM available, which varies depending on the processor and available RAM. Mire info here:
