Won't Connect to Wifi/ screen offset issue

[screech24]

Hello, I'm using this awesome project however I am running into a couple issues.

1. I cannot get the D1 mini to connect to wifi no matter what I do I have tried changing the wifi name and password to something shorter nothing works. It has connected to wifi perfectly fine using other code.

2. I am using a waveshare 1.8" lcd with the ST7735S chip which I'm assuming is the cause of the screen offset / pixels around the edges issue I am also having.

UPDATE:
I was able to get it to connect to wifi, I think it was a DHCP issue.
I also figured out that the display i am using requires the #define TFT_GREENTAB2 in the config but I am lacking the skills to fix the code and get it to compile properly.

Hey there,
thanks for your feedback!
Good you managed to connect to your wifi. That was the part with the biggest headache for me :)
I can help you with the the screen and set the needed variable for you and create a new build.
Right now I am on a business trip and very busy. So if you got enough patience we can solve this together on the weekend or next week.

Greetings
rick

Sounds good, I got it to connect to wifi but the watch doesn't seem to be working whenever the printers are idle it never switches to the watch. Not sure whats going on but whenever you're free let me know and maybe we can work on it together. Cheers Jesse

In the current version it shows the watch only when all printers are offline.
Showing the watch on idle printers is planed for the next release.

Can you please send me a datasheet or the complete type of the display you're using?
Then i can look into the offset issue.

greetings

Good morning. Here is the link to the display. https://www.waveshare.com/1.8inch-lcd-module.htm Hopefully this helps, however when I was playing around with the code what worked for me was "#define TFT_GREENTAB2" Thanks Jesse

Hey jesse,

after checking the display driver lib. you're right. the #define TFT_GREENTAB2 should help TFT_eSPI Repo fixing the offset issue.

However... with you're playing around you found a working solution for your case? Do you still need help compiling a version for your display?

I put this issue on the ToDo list for the future release. Making this an configurable option over the interface may be a good idea. Unfortunately I am really busy recently and got no time for private projects. As soon as this changes I will continue working on this project.

Hey Rick, Thanks for getting back to me, Unfortunately when I tried to compile the code myself in VScode I wasn't able to fix the errors completely to get it working properly I was able to adjust the screen yes but the rest of the code didn't seem to be working properly. Its not a huge rush I can wait for the next update for the display fix. Appreciate your help Jesse
