goToRoot instead of Screensaver

[nwa2001]

Hey, nice Library, thank you for your work!

I guess in the new version v2.2.3, there is the same Bug like in issue #31.

I have reconstructed the problem by using the example code (LCDML_u8g2lib):

In v2.2.3 you have to allocate the screensaver function to a concrete Menu Item, otherwise istead of showing the screensaver it will jump to the root menu, after the given time (default: 10seconds).

For testing i tried with v 2.1.2 .... the screensaver works as it should.

Thank you in advance.

Hey, something is not clear to me. On my tests i check the screensaver with a menu function and it works. Have you changed something on the example code ? Do you use the screensaver with a function which is not defined in the menu structure ?

I have add some defined states in this version. A defined state is the "goRoot" way. For example when a function is used which is not defined in the menu structure the menu goes to the root position.

Hey..

On my tests i check the screensaver with a menu function and it works.

Yes, as long as you call the screensaver function in one concrete Menuitem. Lets say you switch in the example:

LCDML_add (0 , LCDML_0 , 1 , "Information" , mFunc_information); // this menu function can be found on "LCDML_display_menuFunction" tab

to:

LCDML_add (0 , LCDML_0 , 1 , "Information" , mFunc_screensaver); // this menu function can be found on "LCDML_display_menuFunction" tab

then the screensaver works as it should. Even without calling the (new) Menuitem1 a single time.

Do you use the screensaver with a function which is not defined in the menu structure ?

I didn't change anything, except the line for my display:

U8G2_ST7920_128X64_F_SW_SPI u8g2(U8G2_R0, 8, 6, 7, U8X8_PIN_NONE);

and the three encoder pins...

... something causes not to open screensaver funktion after the elapsed time ... maybe (but that's oracle reading) a function that is hidden is not registered by the code (sounds weird, but i'm not an expert) I didn't even got a serial print (that I placed in the screensaver setup).

Hello, i found something, but the changes are not so easy. I have to change some more lines.

Can you test the latest master branch version ?

Thank you Nils, the problem seems to be solved! Nice!
