DS development > SOLVED-SOMETHING is definitely wrong with touchscreen coding

#130187 - NeX - Thu May 31, 2007 7:20 pm

This is using an included example, compiled on the latest version of Devkitpro. The only change I have made is that I have changed an old variable that doesn't compile to a new one in the VRAM bank management. Any explanations for this? This is VERY BROKEN. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trmPfykpiWY

Works fine for me. I didn't have to change any code either (I'm using the r20 install)...
Also on the top screen you should have text, behind the red ball.

I'd show a video too, but my housemate has pinched my camera!

The text used to appear in older versions, but doesn't now. My X and Y buttons are screwed up, too, making me think this is a problem with reading the AUX as I once read it.

Why did you have to change some of the code to make it build?
And when you get problems with the touch stuff there could be a problem with your ARM7 binary.
Although the fact that you get no text on the back screen sounds a bit like it's just the display that's not set up correctly. That'd explain why the red ball thing doesn't line up with your pen properly.

I checked the ARM7 stuff and you're right. It seems the update didn't overwrite a few files.

...so do you now get text on the main screen?
And still, why did you have to adjust the code to make it build?
