Is this screen supported in Esphome?

See this video for this new nest-like encoder knob: 2.1-Inch Round Display with Magnetic Encoder Knob #ESP32S3 - YouTube and the link to the device for sale: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804935405680.html

Is the screen in this device already supported by esphome? This would make an outstanding control for a HA implemented thermostat.

Same video on youtube link and on ali :wink:

I can’t see st7701 supported at all on esphome.

I had hoped @fvanroie would support it in openhasp, but no luck on that (yet) (although I see it seems to support fgvl.)

The screen is supported by Arduino_GFX. ST7701S is supported in that library. Not sure if ESPhome can use it though.

openHASP doesn’t make much sense on this device since there is no real touchscreen…
So the limiting factor is no touchcontroller, the display should work.

Taking a look at that video (and I saw your comment on it) it would certainly imho be good with openhasp, if you watch it, scrolling through menus and pressing the one button to select. It’s not really that different to a touch experience. All imho of course, and coding is not my superpower.

Anybody has got this working or any tips? :slight_smile:

looks like it is supported here.

I am giving it a shot at the moment, no idea what I’m doing TBH :slight_smile:
