Some settings for the Raspbian on Raspberry Pi

Note: This blog will keep updating some setting tips when use the Raspbian on raspberry Pi.

Tips 1: on Raspbian, it is set to double click to open file by default. the method to set single click to open file:
(1) Open terminal and modify file (user Pi user authorization):
nano /home/pi/.config/libfm/libfm.conf
(2) Change the statement: single_click =0 to single_click=1, then save and exit
(3) reboot your pi

Tips 2: Keep your Raspberry Pi display lighting all the time
If there isn't any operation, the raspberry Pi will turn off the display automatically, sometimes we want to make our screen keep lighting all the time, you can set as below:
Open the modify the lightdm.conf file
sudo vi /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
Find the option server-command which is under [SeatDefaults]
change the statement #xserver-command=X to xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms
And reboot.
Author say:  Anyone who have some funny tips of raspberry could share at the review.

Make a new larger font for Waveshare SPI e-Paper

    There are five fonts (font8, font12, font16, font20 and font24) provided for e-Paper. Some users just want to make their customized fonts or bigger font, but have no idea about how to do it.     This Blog,  I will tell you how the provided fonts works and how to make a new bigger font. How do the fonts  provided  works? To draw a character on dots matrix screen, it works like to draw many dots on screen and make it look like a character. Just like this: we draw every “pixel” to white （for visibility I set it Yellow）or black, and finally we get the character “T”. As you can see, we set the paint area to 9(wide) x 20 (wide). White is 0 and black is 1, then we can get a set of binary value for every raw, convert them to HEX format, we can get the value as the fonts file. Note that one HEX value stand for 8bits, if the last bits are less than 8, we could extend it. We say it is scanning from left to right and top to bottom: We take the font24 as example. The f

The hardware: Raspberry Pi 3B  1.44inch LCD HAT The software: Raspbian fbtft   Some users feedback that this LCD less of instruction and some of them like to use it as a monitor of Pi. So, this article Let's learn how to port fbtft for displaying with Raspberry Pi.   Framebuffer uses an buffer to store the data for displaying, if you want to change the display you just need to change the data on buffer.   There is an open source project on github:  https://github.com/notro/fbtft . Thanks to its contributors. With this project, Raspberry Pi could supports TFT LCD perfectly. Let's do it. Framebuffer 1. Open and edit module file to enable modules    sudo nano /etc/modules    Append two statement below to the file . The first one is to enable the SPI of Pi and the second is used to start the fbtft device.   spi-bcm2835   fbtft_device 2. Creating a new file for fbtft configuration   sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/fbtft.conf    Add the statements to

Touch Rotating for Waveshare LCD (Modify libinput parameters )

Note: This method only work for some Waveshare HDMI LCD. And we here take 7inch HDMI LCD (C) as example, use Rapsbian Stretch. The supports LCD are: 7inch HDMI LCD (B) 7inch HDMI LCD (C) 7inch HDMI LCD (H) 10.1inch HDMI LCD (B) 10.1inch HDMI LCD (D) 13.3inch HDMI LCD (H) Some one said that this method also work for 5inch HDMI LCD (B). libinput    libinput is a library that handles input devices for display servers and other applications that need to directly deal with input devices.  The simplified software stack for a system running X.Org is: And on the Touchscreen page we can find the Calibration matrixs: So we could get the matrix values for clockwise (for anticlockwise, just exchange the 90 degree and 270 degree): [0, -1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1] : 90 degree [-1, 0, 1, 0, -1, 1, 0, 0, 1]: 180 degree [0, 1, 0, -1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1]: 270 degree Display Rotation  To rotate the display, you can just add the rotation statement to the config file.
