        @sdetweil thank you, but we tried this. we tried a USB C to HDMI cable, and then the micro HDMI adapter to plug into the RPi, We also tried a HDMI to USB adapter at the monitor end. Each time the monitor didn’t recognise any input. The monitor looked like it could see the USB C connection, but it wouldn’t display anything.

            I thought I would post the solution (almost tested), we bought a hdmi to usb-c with usb power cable. We thought we had bought micro hdmi but seems not. Down side i broke the micro hdmi to hdmi adapter so once I get a new one the touch screen will work.

                Touch screen is now working.
                Currently have a micro-hdmi adapter into the RPi. A powered hdmi to usb-c connecting from adapter to the monitor.
                The powered bit is plugged into the usb a port on the Pi. Hope this helps in the future 😀
