Adding rotary encoder with I2C OLED display

  Check it in ui.h or displaylist.h for 1.0 version. Each controller has a section setting pin numbers and at the end 2 functions handling the keys.

  Thank you Repetier. I'm not too much of a coder and am finding myself confused as to where I may either enable or define the encoder. 1.1 dev is what I think I've downloaded.
  
  I read both the ui.h and displaylist.h files and see no obvious place for this.
  
  RAMPS 1.4 board, The encoder is connected as follows:
  
  Button A 33
  Button B 35
  Click button 37
  
  Thanks again.

  how did you set up yor display?
  did you use the uiconfig.h?

  Yes uiconfig.h
  
  #define UI_DISPLAY_TYPE 5
  #define U8GLIB_SSD1306_I2C

  so it´s simple to add Encoder.

  in configuration.h 

  set #define FEATURE_UI_KEYS 1

  in uiconfig.h

  uncomment   //  UI_KEYS_INIT_CLICKENCODER_LOW(33,31);  and replace the pin numbers by yours

  do the same for //UI_KEYS_CLICKENCODER_LOW_REV(33,31)

  similar  for button , assign pin number/function

  so at least the part in your uiconfig.h should be

  void uiInitKeys() {
  #if UI_HAS_KEYS!=0
    UI_KEYS_INIT_CLICKENCODER_LOW(33,35); 
    UI_KEYS_INIT_BUTTON_LOW(37); // push button, connects gnd to pin
  

  #endif
  }
  void uiCheckKeys(uint16_t &action) {
  #if UI_HAS_KEYS!=0

   UI_KEYS_CLICKENCODER_LOW_REV(33,35); 
   UI_KEYS_BUTTON_LOW(37,UI_ACTION_OK); // push button, connects gnd to pin
  #endif
  }

  
  

  
  

  think that should work for you, if Encoder direction is wrong, just swap the pin numbers

  Thank you RAyWB. I'll hack on that when I get home from work.

  This works. Thank you so very much.
  
  (Note to self -- This works better if you actually connect to pins 33, 35, and 37. Not 31, 33, 35.... )
