Perfect timing, stumbled upon this one like a week ago on Amazon and thought about purchasing it, the reviews mentioned a lack of / non-functional waveshare code and so I didn't risk it. Your video might just make me purchase one after all✌
Thanks for your video, that is a very nice new year project :). I have a question, instead of copying-pasting all the UI files to the project root folder, would it be possible to update CMake: the file CMakelists.txt, and add the header and source to the project, something might like: """ file(GLOB UI_MODULE ui/*.h ui/*.cpp ) add_executable(NewYearProject ${UI_MODULE}) """ so we can have a cleaner root folder and keep the generated UI files organized in different subfolders?
Stumbled on this vid, it's New Years Day. Absolutely superb vid, so very well presented, clear and concise so my 1st purchase for 2025 will be the C6 to have a play. Thks you and a Very Happy New Year to you sir.
right, this ESP32-c6 has reasonable examples and libraries. I am working on another Wareshare LCD, ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-1.28, the Demo does NOT have an Arduino folder at all, and the graphic library TFT_eSPI commented out their customized implementation, I have to do a file comparison with the TFT_eSPI original code to find out the Waveshare customized code to enable the display drive and their pin configurations. I'm not sure why they did that to their own example code ... I was also trying to install their forked FreeRTOS plugin to VSCode, and may god bless their code, I am not sure they do black box tests the installation process at all.
I'm using the same model screen with squareline studio 1.5.0. Basically you have to use the Squareline generated library files for squareline to work correctly and you have to use the waveshare files for the screen to work correctly 🙂 I really wish there was better standardization. Anyways, I had the same problems as you and was able to distill the solution down to a pretty simple process. #1 - Export the sample project with UI from Squareline Studio #2 - Go to the TFT_eSPI folder generated by Squareline and replace the entire contents of the User_Setup.h file with the contents of the GA901.h file from the waveshare demo file Works perfectly. There was also a problem getting the touch screen to work since this display uses i2c for touch and the library files provided by Squareline don't support i2c touch. Thanks to some help from others online, I was able to add touch support as well. My only problem now is the touch calibration is way off and I haven't found the time to figure out how to calibrate it yet 😞
I just watched it along with your previous video. It can be used with TFT_eSPI; you just need to add the file with C6 support and create a user_setup file. I can share the files if you want .
Lot of thanks for your videos. There are another interesting framework that is EEZ Studio to make offline GUI with LVGL - ua-cam.com/video/Ek9qhIipxKU/v-deo.html
Thanks! Happy New Year, Volos! Looking forward to another year of amazing esp32 goodness with your wonderful guidance!
Thank you my friend, best wishes to you and your family 😀
This should give your viewers just how much work you put into a project !! 👍

Thanks, it is nice to see the development environment defined. It would be nice to see examples of how the UI code is used from within the user code.
Thanks for the idea! I will try
Agreed! How to connect sensor data to the UI it how to react when a button is clicked by the user
Happy New Year Volos! May you continue to be the beacon of inspired ESP32 / Display / GUI richness we've all come to know you as.

My friend you are amazing, thanks for this and all the effort you have put in.
Thanks
You're always doing the best at the most suitable time👍
Another beautiful design. You’re awesome

Yes please! More videos like this!
will do my friend
Danke!
Thank you Frank.
Excellent Volos! Happy New Year from central Florida 🎉🌴🇺🇸
Happy new year Jenkins!
Volos - happy new year!!!
@@rraftek best wishes, happy new year 😀
Bonjour, très intéressant comme tuto surtout quand il est doublé en français. Merci et je vous souhaite une très bonne année
Happy new year !
@@gaborpap3571 happy new year 😀
Happy new year!
Very nice board. This gives me some cool ideas.. thank you
Happy new year 😀
Sve najbolje u novoj godini
Sve najbolje u novoj, mnogo meda ,zdravih pčela i zdravog života.
People should start using EEZ Studio, an open source alternative to Squareline.
@@alejandroperez5368 yes i know, i will try it
Excellent! I'm inspired.
Cool, I am wating for once of these.
I had too sub again. You deserve it 💪
@@jj74qformerlyjailbreak3 welcome back 😀
Great video (again!)... Did you solder the pins on the ESP32, or did it come with the pins already soldered?
@@DenisOnTheTube thank you,i soldered them myself. You will need small tip, but it can be done.
@@VolosProjects Thanks!
You need to start to ask Waveshare royalties on your creations😂
Cool 🖖

That whoud be great, can you please send me mail at volos.marketing@gmail.com thank you my friend
@@VolosProjects I sent it
@furkanyildirir1676 thank you, i will check it probably tomorow, cant wait to see your game 😀
MOVIE plot.. SECRET Earth agent esp32 saves the day..
Does this have touch screen?
No 😒
nice esp32
Just another 90 seconds would be great:
How to make the button do something and how to update the value of a UI elemenr
Plan is to do that in next video😀
buen trabajo
I like this video, however squareline is not for free or in other case the functionality is very limited.
Thank you.Only thing that is limited is number of widgets, free version gives 150 of them. So it depends.

Too bad it doesn't have touch display

Do you even know my intended use case? Yes/No?
@@2.Plus.2.Equals.5
Do you even know the use case for display with a touch sensor? Yes/no?
Thanks
