In the only GLCD example, I found these two commented lines : Glcd_Set_Font(@FontSystem5x8, 5, 8, 32); which passed through the compiler (no matter that the '32' parameter is not indicated in the manual and do not know what it is) but nothing at all changed ! Another one : Glcd_Set_Font(@System3x6, ...

I wonder why ME doesn't give some 'popular' libraries as open source. Since they are also written in mikroPascal, they cannot be 'stolen' from other developers. Not to mention that they will be super-stable in a matter of days from user contribution. And they will get back better code for free, and ...

Not to mention GLCD_Disable;

and custom font support....

set font to what ? there are not any details in the manual.

procedure Glcd_Set_Font(font_address : longint; font_width, font_height : byte);


what is font_address for the default font ? What about custom fonts, do they work yet ?

And which are the features that ME Basic has and PDS lack ?

Charlie, how are you rating PDS ? I searched the official site a bit and found out that it is loaded with many features that ME compilers lack. I am using GLCD a lot and the respective ME libraries are full of problems. So I am seriously thinking of switching to PDS. I really count on your opinion.

Check this simple code : begin GLCD_Init(PORTC,0,1,2,3,4,5,PORTD); // CS1, CS2, RS, RW, RST, EN GLCD_Image(Splash_bmp); Delay_ms(3000); GLCD_Fill(0); GLCD_Write_Text('Text here',1,0,1); end. The text never appears on the screen !!! When I print it inverted GLCD_Write_Text('Text here',1,0,0); I get n...

I had these kind of problems on my GLCD too. Yesterday I found out that there is some kind of crosstalk between ports too ! Connected the GLCD to portC and portD and a 4x8 keyboard to portA and portB. Some text screens on the GLCD did not appear. When I reset the ports A and B, it worked, no matter ...

I am interested for the same for the following processors :

18F452
18F4520
18F4525
18F4620

I suppose that TRIS and PORT commands are exactly the
same, but what happens with the other two about ADC etc ?

I'd really appreciate if you could help me on that !

Is there any clue when will the next version be released ?

Any idea when the next version will be out ??

When I am trying to use this command, the compiler says that this identifier is not declared. Is this procedure implemented in the library ?

Hmm, this may make things clearer : When I press the RESET button on EP2, to reset the PIC, all leds go completely off EXCEPT the one connected to GLCD RESET pin. This one (in my case RC4) is slightly lit and measures 1.8 Volts. The same thing happens during PIC programming with PICFLASH. Of course ...

I have also found something interesting : There are still sometimes that GLCD doesn't turn on properly. I have noticed that the EP2 led corresponding to the GLCD RESET pin is lit all the time when the GLCD is working ok. When GLCD is not responding, this led is always off. Another thing is that when...

I am pretty sure that Keypad_Read returns 255 when no key is pressed, whereas in the manual it says that it should return zero.

For instance :

while kp = 255 do kp := Keypad_Read;

is working and the original line in the example

while kp = 0 do kp := Keypad_Read;

does not !

Anyone know why ?
