draw numbers on TFT has sometimes ghost-letters on the beginn and/or the end of the line

[Loetnase]

Look for the picture over the red marks.

I have testet different types of draw, all have the same problem,
i would like use the three drawRightString, drawCenterString and drawString.
But i got this ghost-letters on the beginn and/or the end of the line.
This .ino is running on a ESP32 with ILI9341 320x240, TFT_eSPI is the newest 2.5.43
The Arduino IDE is the new 2.3.2
Do i make there a mistake or can that be a bug in the TFT_eSPI.

In the next post is the Software with ther you can see my problem live.

Thank you for your help.

Add tft.fillScreen(TFT_RED); at the beginning of the loop before "// Create a sine wave for testing". That will "clear" the screen of the last characters. You can expect flicker between redraws. Maybe add a delay(1000); at the end of the loop.

The best approach is to draw numbers to sprites and push them to the red screen for no flicker....
