setCursor() doesn't work properly after using autoscroll()

[Xisle]

I was attempting to have some text scroll onto the top row of the LCD-714 screen followed by statically placed text on the second row. I was not getting the desired results so I copied the autoscroll() sample code but reversed the order of the loop() section. I got the same unexpected results. How can I get setCursor() to work after using autoscroll()?

This is the modified sample code I am using:

Code: Select all

#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_MCP23017.h>
#include <Adafruit_RGBLCDShield.h>

Adafruit_RGBLCDShield lcd = Adafruit_RGBLCDShield();

void setup() {
  lcd.begin(16,2);
}

void loop() {
  lcd.setCursor(16,1);
  lcd.autoscroll();

  for (int thisChar = 0; thisChar < 10; thisChar++) {
    lcd.print(thisChar);
    delay(500);
  }

  lcd.noAutoscroll();
  lcd.setCursor(0, 0);

  for (int thisChar = 0; thisChar < 10; thisChar++) {
    lcd.print(thisChar);
    delay(500);
  }

  lcd.clear();
}
