Hi, 

 

now I followed the recommended Instruction. https://www.touchgfx.com/resources/demo-videos/webinar-videos/

In Webinar two an example show to hide an image.

 

I create a new project, choose a my Board, not available => choose Nucleo-h636Zi + fgx02zi. 

Followed the intructions on the Webinar 2 and run the simulator. fine., => "Program and Run on Target"

 

The Code compliled well without error and the update to my stm works without errors. 

But nothing happened on the Screen. 

I think because the Hardware Nucleo-h636Zi => Nucleo-F767Zi does not fit. 

Does someone have an idea to get some content to my Display?

regards

Carsten

Hello @Carsten73 ,

 

Which board did you say you choose? h363? I do not find it.
Furthermore, I cannot find any board named h636 online.

 

If a design works well on simulator but not on your board, it is usually because you have not properly configured your board + screen.

 

To get some content on your display, you need to properly configure your board + display.
We have documentation about that : TouchGFX board bring up 

The first step is to try to get a full red screen by setting all the pixels of your screen to red by using (for example) the LTDC to control your screen, you could try to start by that.

I guess this thread is irrelevant now since you went for Nucleo-f767 + ILI9341.

The documentation link is still relevant and you should still first try getting a full solid colored screen.

Which driver do you use?

Bodmer's TFT_eSPI library?
He has special mentions for H767 so it seems special work have been done for that board.

Glad to hear that! :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:

If you want a better screen on a development board, have a look at https://riverdi.com/fr/product/035-nucleo-144
You will have to buy the Nucleo board separately (ex: on Digikey) and you will have a great screen with an already existing TBS.

Riverdi has other displays (5, 7, 10 and 12 inches) : riverdi.com/product-category/stm32-embedded-displays

I recommended the 3.5 inches one because this is the newest, I know it is great and affordable.

The best thing for you is probably to check their product and take the one that suits your need the best (I don't know what you need).
