Is it possible to create a new font size for IL9341 ?

[orpheedulogis]

Hi all

I tried to generate a font.
Here i need to have fixed size font because it's hard to control "intelligent" positionning for text .

GLCD give me the coding but it don't give pre-codes , like existing fonts (bytes by char, pixels H, pixels V... and others so I can't use the produced font.

is there any solution for this ?

thanks for help

Hello,

Have you used 'Export for TFT and new GLCD' option?
This option in GLCD Font Creator generates the font table which is compatible with TFT library functions (TFT_Set_Font).

Best regards.

I used "Export for MikroElektronika Compilers'

For MikroC , this give the following complete code ( here I want to have a courrier fixed size font)
This code directly start but space char code (32)

Code: Select all

//http://www.mikroe.com 

//GLCD FontName : [b]Courier_New7x11[/b]
//GLCD FontSize : 7 x 11

const unsigned short Courier_New7x11[] = {

        0x07, 0x0

if I put this code -witch use different size than already existing font codes- it doesn't work.
Of course: there is no information about following char informations !

following code show the difference between codes: here, with already working font, you have many (red color) lines before real chars individual declaration witch is different from code generated by GLCD.
Probably I didn't understand something but I can't see any other option in GLCD font creator for this
