Hello,

I am trying to run the Waveshare 3.2" LCD (IL9325) panel using an stm32F429. I've managed to drive the 16bit bus along with the control lines correctly since I can read out the panels ID from the first register. I have been having a very hard time trying to get the panels drawing pictures, but I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I can go from a white screen, to a bit of a darker background after running my initialization procedure but any attempts to draw have no effect. I was hoping if someone here had any insight on what to look at for my symptoms or if they could take a look at my register settings to see if I am doing anything blatantly wrong.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. And Andy, thank you so much for your site. It has proved to be a very useful tool for learning.
