Hi Bill,

Thanks for the info. I expect the LCD's to arrive soon so I can test it myself.

Strange all those random pixels (I assume after clear display. It may be that 
the shift 1 pixel to the left may be caused by the fact that this controller 
support 132x64 while the SSD1306 supports 128x64 and I still used 128x64 in 
this library but I will test that too. I head something similar from Rob 
Hamerling to add an offset.

I noticed when testing the SSD1306 library that some scrolling funtionality 
only worked for the version with SPI and not IIC. I do not know why that is.

As soon as I get it all working I will send you an update.

Kind regards,

Rob

I meant Horizontal and diagonal scrolling.

Hi Rob,

You're on the right track, that addressing also gave me some problems to figure 
out.

I'll send some pictures so you can see what's happening on the display.

The "8" at the bottom left has been moved 1 position so that the full character 
is visible.

 That is not a big problem. Only the vertical scrolling functions work, the 
horizontal and

vertical ones don't.

And of course the unwanted pixels are the problem as far as I've been able to 
discover,

as you can see in the pictures.

Kind regards, Bill.

Hi Bill,

I had a detailed look at the datasheet of the SH1106 and saw that setting the 
device on a certain position works differently so I changed that. This way of 
positioning the device uses a page addressing mode. This mode is also available 
in the SSD1306 but there the library uses horizontal addressing mode and so a 
different method is used. You can also select the page addressing mode on the 
SSD1306 and then the same approach is used as in the SH1106.

Not sure if this solves all problems but this version will not work on the 
SSD1306 since the command to select the addressing mode is not present in the 
SH1106 so I removed that command in total to prevent any side effects. In the 
future it might be possible to make one library for both (maybe with a 
'define') but maybe it is better to keep them separate otherwise the library 
name should change to glcd_ssd1306_sh1106.

If this does not work then you have to wait until I can test it myself.

Kind regards,

Rob

Hi Bill,

OK. These where settings that supposed to work for both. I will do some more 
research and will test it first myself before sending an update.

Kind regards,

Rob

The latest lib make it worst, both displays are now up side down.
And the 1306 is now messy and the 1106 behavior is further unchanged.
Kind regards, Bill.

Hi Rob,
Only for the video together, when used
separately the same results on the display

Hi Bill,

Are you using both at the same time on the same IIC bus with the same IIC 
address? That may give problems.

I updated the library and used other initialization settings that I received 
from the other Rob. They should work both for the ssd1306 as well as for the 
sh1106.

Kind regards,

Rob
