[FR] (Add an option to block the screen on a marlin or graphic mode, remove the switch mode)

[devildant]

Describe the solution you'd like
add an options for completely disable the switch mode, to stay in the default mode and no longer be able to change mode

[oldman4U]

How would you leave this mode in touchscreen mode and Marlin mode?

[radek8]

This is a big advantage of this display and you want to cancel it?

[devildant]

@radek8 I bought a TFT35 E3 V3, for two things, changing the text color and the idle function.

I never use the touchscreen (it's not even connected to my cm because, it doesn't support it anyway)
in this kind of case the switch is useless

@oldman4U the goal is never to leave marlin mode (for motherboards that don't support graphic mode)

I have for the moment made the modification dirty, by commenting the loopCheckMode in MarlinMode.c

   #if LCD_ENCODER_SUPPORT
      sendEncoder(LCD_ReadTouch());

       if (LCD_BtnTouch(LCD_BUTTON_INTERVALS))
         sendEncoder(1);
    #endif
    // disable swith menu 
    // loopCheckMode();

You found a good solution for you. All others can simply avoid to press the encoder for more than one second. This helps to avoid switching the mode. I had the problem the other way around and also found a solution.

Your solution is good.
I doubt that there will be anyone else who bought a touch screen and would like to disable touch mode ...

I've always wondered why you disassembled the encoder :-)

[oldman4U]

Removed the reset the same time. ;-)

[devildant]

@oldman4U I also removed the reset button, too dangerous

so i will close my feature request, at worst if someone needs it my changes are there

[oldman4U]

Update. Seems digant73 implemented it in his last PR.

Happy printing
