A new background rendering approach is used for smooth fonts which almost eliminates flicker. tft.print... can now be used with a background rendered for smooth fonts. Font_Demo_1/2/3... examples have been updated.
A new "docs" folder has been created and files moved there. The Tools folder now only contains support tools.
#1757 fixed by using Arduino calls.
A new USER_SETUP_ID parameter can be added to setup files and checked via a new verifySetupID(id); function.
Version raised to v2.4.50
Sprite class uses TFT_eSPI setBitmapColor - fn deleted
Small performance improvement to RP2040 SPI PIO
Typo corrections
Correct (unused) tft_Write_32 for STM32
Update HX8357D rotation code
Enable software reset for ILI9486
Add preliminary RM68120 support
I have a SeeedStudio Wio Terminal.
I'm using this lib in VS Code with PlatformIO but the lib
don't use the `SPICOM` variable when it's a generic device.
Steps to reproduce (using a Wio Terminal):
* Create a project using PlatformIO
* Add the TFT_eSPI lib to the project
* Add in the build flags these lines
```
build_flags =
-DUSER_SETUP_LOADED=1
-DILI9341_DRIVER=1
-DHASSPI=1
-DSPICOM=LCD_SPI
-DTFT_CS=LCD_SS_PIN
-DTFT_DC=LCD_DC
-DTFT_RST=LCD_RESET
-DTFT_BL=LCD_BACKLIGHT
-DTFT_BACKLIGHT_ON=HIGH
-DTFT_BACKLINGT_V=2000
```
* Compile and transfer to the device
=> only backlight works
The RP2040 processors can now drive 8 bit parallel and SPI displays using the PIO hardware.
The PIO offloads the processor by providing:
1. PIO managed setWindow sequence
2. PIO managed block and screen fill
