TFT_eSPI & TFT_ST7735 Together?

[phillmj]

Hi, I've got a MIDI controller where I want to have a main screen, and then 8 smaller screens above faders to show values.

I understand you cannot have more than one instance of the TFT_eSPI library, and I was wondering if I could use both the TFT_eSPI library as well as the other library TFT_ST7735 at the same time?

The TFT_ST7735 would drive the 8 smaller screens, and the TFT_eSPI library would drive the main screen. Presumably using the CS trick of setting pins to -1 in the setup and then manually pulling CS low/high to send commands to the 8 smaller screens.

Would this work, before I spend a fortune on hardware that may not play well together?

Thanks, love the library, and if you ever feel like adding multiple instance support, that would be amazing!!
