Hello all,
I have a simple question....is there a way to change the font style (not the size) for the ILI9341 to something like Verdana or anything anyway??

Hello

I'm afraid that Flowcode 8 cannot change the font but yes you can do this in v9. You could try the free trial and see if it does what you want.

Hello, again I took for testing one 3.2 ili9341 from eBay with spi interface...
https://www.ebay.com/itm/3-2-Inch-320-2 ... 2749.l2649
My God, it's slow!!!! running a dspic33fj256gp710a at 48Mhz internal oscillator w/pll
everything works well no problem, it's just dead slow!!!! refreshing 5 images 60x60 pixels my take 5-6 seconds text maybe 1 or 2.
Nothing specifically to share in code I just want to print a bitmap from an SD with speed!!!
Maybe I need a 16 parallel screen???
All is under testing on hardware :wink:

Hello,

Are you using the Standard or SPI version of the component? Might be worth trying the SPI version if you're not already and we can look at the prescaler for the SPI to make sure it's running as fast as possible. Also worth looking at the prescaler for the file component.

Can you post your project file and we'll take a look for you.

Might also be worth doing the 1 second flash test just as a sanity check that things are running at the rate you think they are.
