I have the 7” lcd connected to my pi3 in a position that requires the display to be upside down. I can successfully invert the image by adding in the appropriate line in the /boot/config.txt file. However, every time I update the volumio firmware I have to re-edit this file to put the lcd_rotate line in. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
Thanks
Yes, I am currently testing a new version of the touch display plugin which will solve this issue. Edit: I have now opened a PR on GitHub: https://github.com/volumio/volumio-plugins/pull/388.
Somehow I was assuming you are using a Raspberry Foundation display. When I read your post again I realized that this is not clear though.
In case you should use another display needing specific settings in /boot/config.txt you can add them to /boot/userconfig.txt (https://forum.volumio.org/touch-display-config-txt-t13353.html) instead. /boot/userconfig.txt does not get overwritten on system updates and is available since Volumio 2.673.
Excellent! That works just fine. Thanks very much gvolt!
