Problem 2: "Export for TFT and new GLCD library" is greyed out after opening .lcd font file.
Steps to reproduce:
[*]Start new instance of GLCD Font Creator.
[*]FILE > OPEN and select existing .lcd font.
"Export for TFT and new GLCD library" is greyed out.
Solution:
[*]Start new instance of GLCD Font Creator.
[*]FILE > NEW FONT FROM SCRATCH
[*]Click OK to get the blank squares.
[*]FILE > OPEN and select existing .lcd font.
"Export for TFT and new GLCD library" is now available.
Problem 3:
When importing a font with high numbers like FontAwesome (61440 - 61846 rather than 32 to 127), while “export for TDT and new GLCD” seems to work OK, “export for GLCD” only gets as far as
// Code for char
at the end of the first line, and then abruptly stops.
Steps to reproduce:
[*]Download FontAwesome from http://fontawesome.io/ (or other fonts with high character numbers)
[*]Install in system.
[*]FILE > IMPORT EXISTING SYSTEM FONT
[*]Range: 61440 - 61450 (just to test - full range is 61440 - 61846)
[*]Click "EXPORT FOR GLCD" - only first character is generated. See below.
Workaround: None found. Would appreciate help here.
