Also seeing the same when I tried. Editing / adding any items like date or clock didn't appear for me.

 

Thank you for your feedback.  We're working on resolving the remaining issues.

Same here...

btw, my Turzx is populated with a SD card... does that matter?

No, it doesn't.

Hello, I have a TURZX 8.8-inch screen. It says 'v2' in the top right corner, and I couldn't exactly figure out if it's genuine or not. Its own application doesn't see the device either, and I couldn't quite manage to use AIDA64 properly. Could you explain it to me like you're explaining it to a dummy? Thanks.

This is good news for all Turing LCD owners. Thank you!

Temo che non avremo un nuovo aggiornamento prima di lunedì 

Hello today there will be an update released that will make the new Turing screens work properly, we are all eagerly awaiting its arrival.. @Infuocato

We've been able to implement full support for Turing (Turzx) 8.8-inch v1.1 LCD screens.  Please check it out and let us know how it works.

Please note that due to firmware limitations (of the 8.8-inch v1.1 screen), complex LCD layouts may be forced to be sliced up to multiple parts before submitting the image via the USB connection.  It yields to a certain flashing effect that we sadly cannot avoid.  You can mitigate the issue by using a lower LCD update frequency like 2 or 3 seconds.

My bad i just notice that u explain this flashing effect. That really sad even if i increase LCD update frequency it look weird to me

You can get around it only by lowering the rendered image size.  For example, by using a simpler background image (or no background image at all).

wow ok, it work without background image !!!! i'll try to lower the rendered image size. but right now work perfectly !!!

[balaM]

I dont know HOW but i managed to make it work with full image size, it all depend how many "items" u put on the screen and how far to the bottom (i mean it have to reach a certain point to the bottom to work).

It all depends on the final size of the rendered PNG image that is to be submitted to the device.  If the PNG is no more than 512KB in size, it can be displayed using a single USB command, and then no flickering will be experienced.  If however the PNG is larger than 512KB, it has to be sliced up and then you have to live with the flickering issue   I assume the manufacturer of the 8.8-inch v1.1 Turing screen will fix or mitigate this issue in an upcoming firmware, but I'm not sure if it will be possible to update the firmware at home.  So you may need to buy a new screen to get the fix

We'll increase the limitation on PNG file size from 512KB to 1MB in the next beta update.  This will enable you to design more complex layouts without the flickering effect.  However, anything beyond 1MB is not safe, since it locks the firmware of the device up

Thanks for all the answer and the good job u guys do !

@Fiery i have a question about "TIME" sensor and not Turzx screen if i can ask.

There is a way to keep the "TIME" like center, i dont know how to explain but for example, the size for 11:11 and 22:22 is different, so its change the position everytime. anyway to keep it center everytime ?

[Amex72]

I have a question to ask, why the files we download have the .sensorpanel description extension, and to make it work I have to put it with the .tulcd extension?
