I tried the fix in the closed issues

case 0x5408: _lcd_capable = 0 | REV_SCREEN | READ_BGR; goto common_9320;

but the text is still reversed with latest version of library.

Any recommendations or fixes you can suggest are appreciated.

Thank you for your support of this great library.

No problem. I believe that you are working now.

As a general rule. Always use a "Release".
Never use the "current Beta" aka. "master" Branch unless specifically asked to do so.

When you use the Arduino IDE Library Manager it installs v2.9.9-Release.

If v2.9.9-Release has a problem it is much easier to describe. i.e. a specific Release number is a known quantity.

Thanks for the last reply David:

I went back to the Library Manager and installed 2.9.8.

I'm running IDE 1.8.19

Still got the reversed text with version 2.9.8

Works with 2.9.6. Thank you

Oops. I wrote v2.9.6 before obtaining a SPFD5408 Shield. The particular Shield is a bit flaky. But I am confident that Beta, v2.9.9 should work.

It is easy to alter the attributes in _lcd_capable.

I will dig out the 5408 Shield and test historic Releases. Thanks for pointing out a possible problem.

I am on IDE 1.8.13. The IDE should make no difference.

David.
