Display - OLED SSD1306/SH1106 Framed - footer??

#1 Post by dampa » 06 Jun 2022, 19:46

In the documentation for the Display - OLED SSD1306/SH1106 Framed (https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... /P036.html) it says:
The plugin allows for a header and footer line, which may show some user selectable information.
and while the header line options appear in the 'Content' section, nowhere are footer line options to be found.

Is this something missing or is it a documentation error because it doesn't exist?

Well, that line is quite open for interpretation, the Header content is indeed configurable, but the footer currently only supports the page indicators, when having multiple pages, or can be turned off.
There is an open PR #3997 that will add more layout options to this type of display, that would allow you to reserve a line, f.e. in a smaller font, to be used as a footer.

And the actual footer is only enabled on displays having 128x64 pixels (or 132x64, depending on the chipset).

The way I read it is that there should be a footer lines like the header lines, with the same options that you can put in the header... or the documentation should be updated to remove the footer part.

The documentation will be updated (changed in an open PR), as there is not enough space (height) in the footer to put other information than the page indicator and also have the frames shown completely.
