7" touchscreen rpi 2

That's quite all-right... Was hoping someone would be able to do that. I can SSH to the pi, and if I disconnect the dsi cable and plug in a hdmi display it works (needs a reboot). I have tried the dsi...

Before I come up with a solution (Maybe using some tape to secure the back of the screen), I wanted to illustrate the problem I have. Due to the size of the 12.1" screen, even when the nuts are just...

Attaching the 12.1" screen

Also - how are the plastic feet/pads supposed to attach to the driver board ? Am I supposed to tie the board to them ? Would have been easier with some that go through the holes in the driver board...

Attaching the 12.1" screen

It's definitely not a friction fit, the feet do all the work of holding the screen in place. The bolts on the corners shouldn't be tightened to the point that the whole assembly bends. If you loosen...

Attaching the 12.1" screen
