Hello, I'm trying to get the Animated_Eyes_2 example working on a Feather RP2040 with two these 1.54" wide angle TFT displays from Adafruit (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3787). I've only been able to get anything to display at all with RP2040_PIO_SPI defined. Whenever I try to write to both displays only the display with the CS pin defined in my user setup is written to. When I run the Animated_Eyes_2 example you can see both eyes flickering on one screen. If I change the user setup to the pin the other display is wired to, it will write both images on that display. This is also the case the when using the Multiple TFT Displays example [url=https://github.com/kitecraft/Multiple_TFT_Displays]here.[/url] The displays are only written to once in that example, but you can see the text meant for display 2 on display 1, as that is overwriting what was already on display 1.
I've verified that both displays work and the wiring is fine, and I've been able to modify the graphicstest sketch from the Adafruit ST7789 library to write to both screens. I've been able to modify the original Uncanny Eyes project as well, but the framerate is way too slow with the 240x240 screens. Bellow is my user setup for TFT_eSPI and the example multi display sketch. Thank you for your help!
