Is there any library for the 7" LCD touch screen?

    Hi!

    Codesys has a lot of libraries for Raspberry PI - PWM, ADC and much more. But I wonder if there is a library for the 7" LCD touch screen?
    It would be great if WebVisu can handle this:

    It can, Google raspberry pi chromium kiosk mode. It runs the web interface. I've done that a few times. You may be able to use the loopback interface to make a generic image.

    But a proper target visu would be nice, chromium is not that straight forward to set up.

    I don't believe there will ever be one. Because that 7" screen is driven by the Pi. If you set it all up to point to a specific start screen that you always use in projects, you can take an image of the whole thing and there you go plug and play.

    Classic Line LCD is a different story, but that's not going to show the webvisu. You could drive that through the GPIO. But it's a pain and it can't display much. The 7" touch works OK in Kiosk mode but I went away from that for commercial solutions because it's too hard for the average maintenance person.
