Could you be a little more specific regarding the changes you made to this
method:
UBYTE DisplayUpdate(UWORD Height,UWORD Width,UBYTE *pImage)
{
static UWORD State = 0;
static UWORD Line;
if (State == 0)
{
if (DisplayWrite(CMD,(UBYTE*)DisplayInitString,sizeof(DisplayInitString)) ==
TRUE)
{
Line = 0;
State++;
}
}
else
{
if ((State & 1))
{
if (DisplayWrite(CMD,(UBYTE*)DisplayLineString[Line],3) == TRUE)
{
State++;
}
}
else
{
if (DisplayWrite(DAT,(UBYTE*)&pImage[Line * Width],ACTUAL_WIDTH) == TRUE)
{
State++;
if (++Line >= (Height / 8))
{
State = 0;
}
}
}
}
return (State);
}
So far everything I have tried has resulted in garbage on the screen. The
approach that I thought would work given the original description of the tweak
was along these lines:
if ((State & 1))
{
// always set the address for line zero
if (DisplayWrite(CMD,(UBYTE*)DisplayLineString[0],3) == TRUE)
State++;
}
else
{
if (DisplayWrite(DAT,(UBYTE*)&pImage[0],132*8) == TRUE)
State = 0;
}
Thanks in advance for the assistance!

| Change the init message for the LCD display driver to perform wrap around. Offset 12 in the following structure from 0x88 to 0x89. Otherwise it will keep overwriting the same line.
