Hi,
I tried the examples in Further using the OLED screen but I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/tmp/3044550032.py”, line 2, in
from pitop.miniscreen import OLED
ImportError: cannot import name ‘OLED’ from ‘pitop.miniscreen’ (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pitop/miniscreen/init.py)
Which example did you try? Also, have you done software updates on your device?
I’m using the Pi-top Mini Screen tutorial.
I’m working with a Pi-top[4] DIY with a RPI4 4GB with a fresh install of the latest Pi-top OS from the site. I installed all the available updates.
From Pi-Top customer support last month:
"Sorry about that. I’ve gone to try the tutorial myself and yes, there does seem to be an error in the tutorial code. I went into the files and realised it was importing the file from the wrong area. I got mine to work by changing the first line of code to:
from pi-top.miniscreen.oled import OLED
Basically I just added “.oled” to that one part
Sorry about the trouble and the time it took, I will let the further team know about the bug. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Kind regards
Riz S | Customer Service Agent"
Just to clear this up - here is the part of the SDK docs for how to use the miniscreen “properly” (i.e. as intended).
Hi, thank you. This is working.
