My 10" Openplotter Build-in-a-box
#5
Thats a great build and a great explanation too. I am using a 1250 nit 10.1 inch screen from Digiwise for my build as this project is to replace Navionics on iPad which is a great application but the screen is useless in sunlight. The Digiwise screen I purchased is really bright and that's the reverse problem to yours. I now have to work out how to dim the screen as it is too bright at dusk and in low light conditions, it actually hurts to look at it in the dark. 

It has really good touch features which work great when wet and using gestures such as pinch to zoom so ideally I want to use a slider. First I need to get the correct connectors to make up the cables to connect the screen brightness control pins to the Raspberry Pi I2C pins then I need to write some code. If anyone has any pointers I would be grateful.
