Enviro+++ sort of kind of. =)

I’ve been working on this for a while and finally got it all working on a solderless breadboard setup.
I have three of the 0.96" SPI Color LCD (160x80) Breakouts wired up on SPI1, CE0, CE1, CE2. This is the display the Enviro+ uses. I also have a BME280 wired up to i2c.
I’m running a modified all-in-one-enviro-mini python example file. Instead of showing the Temperature “or” Humidity “or” Barometric Pressure graph, I show all three at the same time, one on each display. I striped out the proximity detection cycle the display parts.
Also played around with the sampling rates. Temp and humidity get get plotted every 9 seconds. That gets me about 13 minutes of data across the screen. Pressure is plotted every 45 seconds for 2 hours of data across the screen. The Barometric pressure changes so slowly that unless I plot over a long time I just can’t see a trend up or down.
On the other side of the coin, temp and especially humidity often change at a much faster rate. Long delays between samples gives me a jerky plot. Basically this is what works for “me”.
I also did a quick fill with no delay in the first 160 plots. This gets a graph up on screen quickly on boot up.
My python skills are average. There is likely code in there I could have removed or changed or simplified. It is what it is though and works for me.

Just a heads up if you try to use my python code, you will need to install the needed fonts or you will get an error.
sudo pip3 install fonts
sudo pip3 install font-roboto
