Char printing with new PxMatrix

[BCChad]

Hi Tobias,,
I've installed the recently announced new version of PxMatrix (1,3,9=0) and AdaFruit GFX library (1.2.9).
Now the opening splash screen ("Tetris Time") does not display correctly. The "s" wraps around to the second line.
I am trying to track down in what library the display.print(letter) occurs. I moved the "s" to start printing in column 26, and it prints fine, and leaves a blank column #31, so it should print properly starting in column 27. Something is causing a wrap-around.
I am pretty sure this is not a problem in your code but in one of the referenced libraries.

Hi @BCChad,

I will have a closer look at this code again soon as I plan to build something on a 32x32 matrix. At the moment I unfortunately find not enough time, but I hope I can continue with it in the next weeks.

Note: Please also have a look on the https://github.com/toblum/TetrisAnimation repo. Brian Lough ported this code to a library and also added text support in this video.

Best regards
Tobias

Hi Tobi, I have also installed the latest version from the tetris clock and it is the same bug (Now the opening splash screen ("Tetris Time") does not display correctly. The "s" wraps around to the second line.).
But that is not a problem for me, it only happens if the clock starts.
One more question. Can You also set to the" to do list" a function like Display ON/OFF by time. My clock is working in the children's room, they like it very very. But during the night time it is very very brightly. Like I understand there is no possibility to change the brightness by PWM. The only way is to "dimm" the clock with "light filters" like this "spionage folie". In the moment I switch the clock ON/OFF by an additional 230V timer, but it is not the state of the art. May be You can add a better solution ( right in the main code, there is no need to change it every week) .
Best regards
Burkhard

Dear Burkhard, I have dealt with both of those issues but did not want to upload the changes and complicate Tobias' baseline. 1. The new PxMatrix library has a command for adjusting brightness. I find a value around 40 to be pleasing, but I don't have the foil cover, just exposed LEDs. I also use io.adafruit to adjust brightness remotely. 2. I also embedded functions to turn the display on and off at set night and morning times. Either method solves the issue of nighttime sleeping. Yours, Bruce

Hi Bruce, thank You for the response . Unfortunately I’m not very involved with programming, more HW. Can You share to me your SW if possible. That will be great. Or more detail information how to change the brightness value in the new PxMatrix. Is it the same library like in the SW from Tobias?.Then I can try to find the brightness parameter. Thanks Burkhard

Burkhard - The simplest change is to add this line in "void setup()" somewhere after the "display.begin()" statement" display.setBrightness(8); // try values 0-255 I used values around 40 for the brightest setting. You can see why when it defaults to 255 it is much too bright! I don't mind sharing/uploading my software but I'll have to spend some time cleaning it up first. It occurs to me that another approach would be to use the light sensor (one came with my Arduino kit), have it measure ambient room light, and automatically adjust the brightness... I will have to play with that idea.

Dear Bruce, thank You for help. I’ll try it the next days. An automatic brightness control is of course a very nice think. At first I will try Your "manual version“ Best regards Burkhard

Dear Bruce, is there any progress regarding use the light sensor for automatically adjust the brightness or functions to turn the display on and off at set night and morning times.
I'm very interested
Best Regards
Burkhard

[BCChad]

Thanks for the prompt - but no, I've been off in other directions (using the arduino to run an analyzer for amateur radio antennas).
I confess I'm afraid to post my code - which is not as well-documented and cleaned up as it could be; otherwise I fear it will trigger too many questions... (but it works).
Perhaps I need to commit an evening to making this available.

[BCChad]

Greetings Burkhard, With your prompting I have cleaned up and uploaded my code to BCChad <https://github.com/BCChad>/esp_p10_tetris_clock <https://github.com/BCChad/esp_p10_tetris_clock> I hope I have clicked the right controls to propose these changes to Tobias, but you should be able to get them at my link above. Good luck...! Bruce

Dear Bruce, I have tested Your new patch1 and it works very well. Thank’s for charing. Brightness changing and the nightOff dayOn funktionallity works fine, excluding the IO.adafruit „remote“ for displayOnOff and brigtnesscontrol. For my understanding after WiFi connection there also must be a information like „Connecting to MQTT…“ but I see only this: --- Miniterm on /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART 115200,8,N,1 --- --- Quit: Ctrl+C | Menu: Ctrl+T | Help: Ctrl+T followed by Ctrl+H --- *WM: Connection result: *WM: 3 *WM: IP Address: *WM: 192.168.178.37 11:08:44 26/02/2019 Winter Time.

Hi Burkhard I could get to your IO.Adafruit page but could not open the settings of the controls, but I hope they are similar to mine. I'm a little fuzzy in remembering how MQTT actually works, but I remember going into the Arudino IDE "Examples" in the file menu down near the bottom under "Custom Libraries" is the Adafruit MQTT Library and one example called mqtt_esp8266. I believe I tried a basic example to make sure I got it working correctly before integrating with the Tetris Clock - this approach may help you.

Hi Bruce, thanks for response. Yes, my settings are exactly the same. I had have the same idea like You. I will try it next time.

Hi Bruce, I think I found the reason for my problem regarding the MQTT etc. I have installed in VS-Code Your ESP_P10_TETRIS_Clock-BCCHAD-Patch-1. In this patch are two .ino files. The first is the „tetris_clock.ino with any .h files. If I change in this . ino file the flag 12 or 24 hours and the „nowDay“ or „nowNight“ parameters it works fine. But if I do the same on the „tetris_clock_IoT_v4.ino „ respectively in the chad_time.h file nothing will change, it is without any effect. Therefore I think I do anything wrong during installation / flashing the sketch to the board. I’m not familiar with VS Code and I don’t know what I have to do that only the sketch with Your patch will be transferred to the board. Must I delete in the src folder the tetris_clock.ino and the .h files in the upper part or is there a special command to exclude this files. I hope You understand my problem . Best regards burkhard
