Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi all,

I am hitting a roadblock and thought I'd ask here because I must be doing something wrong. I'm setting up one of these newer waveshare RP2350-Touch-LCD-3.5 boards, and am having an odd issue with the BG color. I noticed it when trying to list the pins. The BG color of the display goes white after the initial print fills the screen, and then each new line is correct (white text on black BG) but turns white on white as soon as it scrolls up. This happens even on a fresh boot with no program loaded.

Just so you know, imgur is blocked in some countries, such as UK

Thank you for the heads-up John, I did not realize that! I tried to upload here but it rendered as a still image. Do you recommend any specific services that are more accessible?

Thanks,
James

This may be a workaround for those at their computers. Here is the .gif file, zipped up for uploading.
