And since the UI-controls-driver only works with the original FEZ touch driver, I adapted for the moment 3 controls to be usable with the driver version 2.2

First the base class


using System;
using Microsoft.SPOT;
using GHIElectronics.NETMF.Hardware;
using GHIElectronics.NETMF.FEZ;
using System.Threading;

namespace FEZTouch.UIControls
{
    public abstract class Control
    {
        protected int X_Pos;
        protected int Y_Pos;
        protected int Width;
        protected int Height;
        protected FEZ_Components.FEZTouch touchscreen;
        protected FEZ_Components.FEZTouch.Font tsFont;
        public FEZ_Components.FEZTouch.Color BGColor;

        protected virtual void Draw()
        {
            throw new Exception("Draw() not implemented");
        }

        public virtual void Refresh()
        {
            Draw();
        }

        protected virtual Boolean IsPointInControl(int x, int y)
        {
            if ((x >= X_Pos) && (x <= X_Pos + Width) &&
                (y >= Y_Pos) && (y <= Y_Pos + Height))
            {
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
    }

                touchscreen.DrawString(X_Pos + (Width - text_width) / 2, Y_Pos + (Height - tsFont.Height) / 2, value,

The TextArea class is not tested, as several DrawStrings are faster but at least it compiles and
can be used in some places.

Excellent work!

Please add this as a project on TinyCLR Code or update the original driver on TinyCLR Code at [url]http://code.tinyclr.com/project/363/fez-touch-driver-ver-22/[/url]

I could use help improving the speed of the driver, if you have any suggestions or have made any changes yourself to improve performance please publish those as well.

Thanks.

@ jasdev
I can’t change the original driver. Should I add a new code project, or do you want to update your driver? It is still mainly your code.

Steh, Thanks, I’ll go ahead and update my code.

I’ve added Steh’s PortraitInverted LCD orientation mode to the Touch driver, and updated the version number to 2.3. The updated code can be found here:
