Hello everyone
İ got this i2c serial lcd code in ccs c forum. İt works well but i couldn't find out how to shift the lcd right or left. Please help me.
| Code: |

// Title: i2c_Flex_LCD
// Description: Driver for common LCD with 1/2/3 or 4 row modules using PCF8574T interface board with I2C protocol.
// Date: Nov-2013
// Ver.Rev.: 1.0
// Author: Hugo Silva (sergio-hugo@bol.com.br) #Based on the routines of 20X4_LCD_I2C_DRIVER.h from Pumrin S.
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// lcd_init() Must be called before any other function.
//
// lcd_putc(c) Will display c on the next position of the LCD.
//
// \f Clear LCD dispay
// \1 Set write position on LCD Line 1
// \2 Set write position on LCD Line 2
// \3 Set write position on LCD Line 3
// \4 Set write position on LCD Line 4
//
// lcd_gotoxy(x,y) Set write position on LCD (upper left is 1,1)
//

// LCD pins D0-D3 are not used.

// Commment : Control of a compatible LCD HITACHI from a bus I2C with

// routines have been programmed using the IC PCF8574T of Phillips.
// I used 4 bits mode programming. The 8 bits mode programming
// is possible if you use 2 x PCF8574T.

// As defined in the following structure the pin connection is as follows:

//To PIC | To i2c slave
//pin xx ------------------ SDA pin
//(SDA)

| You don't. You just have a string, and rotate this, then draw this back to the display. |

| Some LCD modules may have a command to shift the data, though you'll have to read the specific datasheet for YOUR LCD module. On the ones I use( a 20 x 4 unit) there's a command called 'Display Shift' , that will shift either the data or the cursor, left or right. |

Yes. However there is then the need to rewrite the driver code to deal with
the shifted display. Ones that allow you to shift the data origin, result in
subsequent data writes not going to the right location.... 
There are a few that allow shifting without moving the data origin, but
these are relatively rare.
Generally far easier to just rewrite the shifted data. |
