A yes, why first check if the hardware works before trying to get the scrolling to work? Debugging the software before the hardware really sounds like good advice... Who says that I ever gave this advice?? I gave him a snippet of code to experiment with. Per said:
No request anywhere to have the poster bow. Just a request to give some feedback about any progress or where he is stuck. If you read that as "have the poster bow", then I hope this is because a language barrier somewhere. You have no right to request anything here, Per! This is a fundamental misunderstanding. Only because you offer help (or your understanding of help), does not mean that you can anything request. Per said:
I have not intentionally insulted the OP. Do you have any example? Why do you think that I meant you?? Per said:
But doesn't "modify" imply some form of work? Copying another ready solution instead doesn't sound like modifying... You never had to make a change of your product to make it fit to another customer?? What do you do, dear Per, if you follow the recommendations given in a datasheet, for instance? Do you profit from other people's work then, namley the writer of this datasheet and the manufacturer of this chip?? Per said:
Yes, the amount to learn increases with time. But you don't build the fifth floor until you already have the previous floors built. You die if you you just walk around on the fifth floor and there suddenly is a hole all the way down to the basement. But we can of course be helpful and say: "Mind the floor" or "watch the hole". Very flowery. Had you ever contact with a project in your company, that has overchallenged you? How have you finished this project? Sometime, it's needed to build this fifth floor. I'm sorry, if you don't know what I'm talking about. Per said:
This is NOT about expected returns. Not about getting a golden star somewhere. Not about expecting the OP to bow or say thanks. Expecting gratitude or the OP bows is a delusion you have somehow come up with in your head. It's a retrospection to issues here before you joined this forum. Per said:
Most of this thread is probably more useful for other people than the OP. But that is totally irrelevant. The only thing relevant is that you don't give someone a loaded gun before teaching them basic gun handling and safety practices. Per, this is just wrong! This is a forum and not a school. We discuss issues among members. No lessons to newbies! No gun handling and safety practices, but discussion, talk and fun. And you turn this forum into a privat school education by giving lessons and requesting feedback. This is a fundamental misunderstanding! Kai |
