Hi!
I am using a 4.3 nextion screen (with a pro micro) with the Simhub and it is works perfectly, but i have been wondering that if it's possible to controll the brightness of the nextion screen with a potentiometer. I tried to adapt the dimscreen.ino example code (from the nextion library) to the nextionmicrobridge.ino code, but so far, it doesn't work. Maybe i am doing something wrong. So my question would be : is it possible to controll the brightness of the nextion with a potentiometer while the simhub is running?
Thank You for the answer!

Hello !
No you can't the arduino is only acting as a "serial bridge" to the nextion and if you try to send data from ther arduino you will mix with computer sent data and corrupt it.

And theoritically, is it possible to include the feature in the Simhub? (I mean, the brightness changing)
