Glcd_Set_Font_Adv and Large Fonts

#1 Post by bloke » 03 Apr 2017 14:13

Hi

There is no offset for the Glcd_Set_Font_Adv instruction - so where should a custom font range start from in Font Creator?


Thanks


Matthew

Hi Matthew,

You can choose any range that you will need in GLCD Font Creator,
and then when you export that font in your project you can set it with Glcd_Set_Font_Adv.

You can take a look at this thread:

Kind regards,

Thanks - can you tell me what determines whether or not the Export for TFT and new GLCD option is greyed out? I have made a few fonts as tests and on some this option is not available - on others it is.


Thanks

Hello,

The only case where I couldn't export for the advanced GLCD and TFT, was when I was using LCD fonts (for HD44780) - since there's no sense to export for TFT if you want to make fixed size font for the LCD alphanumeric screen.

Hope this helps,
best regards.
BR,
Darko
