Multiple screens

[husnoo]

Hi,

The ESP32 can have two SPI connections, HSPI and VSPI - but it appears the connections have to be hardcoded in the library?

The screen controller, interface pins and library configuration settings must be defined inside the library. They can NOT be defined in the Arduino sketch. See the User_Setup_Select.h file for details. This approach has significant advantages, it keeps the examples clean from long configuration options and once the setup is defined any example can be run without modification.

Am I reading this correctly? Why is this project the only one to do this, if it's such a significant advantage?

The library supports 1 screen.

Two screens of the same type can be used on one SPI bus if the chip select is controlled by the sketch.
