The ESP8266 has the LittleFS Flash filing system which is significantly faster than SPIFFS. New Smooth Font examples have been added that use LittleFS.
The SSD1963 support has been tested with a 480x800 pixel display from Buy Display.
Support for reading an ST7796 SPI display has been added.
pushToSprite added to keywords list.
The library has been cleaned up as it has got a bit untidy due to the large number of small incremental changes.
4bit Sprite examples renaed to be consistent with others.
alphaBlend example moved to generic folder (alphaBlend fn was moved to TFT_eSPI class).
Added sections + explanatory comments to functions prototypes.
Temporary comments added for potential gotchas for noobs when using DMA.
spi_begin/end functions renamed to reflect functionality. Old fns retained for backwards compatibility with user setup.h files.
Images/sprites overlapping both sides of the display were not correctly
cropped.
Option added to allow RGB<>BGR colourr swap option to be used.
ESP8266 Wemos D1 R1 pin numbering difference accomodated.
TTGO T4 setup changed to use HSPI port.
Added SD card storage for smooth fonts with ESP32
ESP32 will use PSRAM (if available and enabled) to hold smooth font
metrics
Improve performance of ESP32 Sprite shared functions
Add basic ST7789 driver option
Latent bug fixes for pin mask
// For ST7789 ONLY, define the colour order IF the blue and red are
swapped on your display
//#define TFT_RGB_ORDER TFT_RGB // Colour order Red-Green-Blue
//#define TFT_RGB_ORDER TFT_BGR // Colour order Blue-Green-Red
Four new examples have been added to show different methods of rendering
the anta-aliased fonts. A few minor bugs have been corrected associated
with the font rendering. drawNumber and drawFloat handle fixed width
mono fonts with no digit movement.
Also added ability to push 1bpp bitmaps to a Sprite to support rendering
images on an EPaper screen.
Floyd-Steinberg dithering and basic graphics example added as first
ePaper demo.
This is stage one of support for ePaper displays from Waveshare.
Examples for 1 bit per pixel Sprites and 2 or 3 colour ePaper displays
to follow soon.
