Re: showing special characters
Hi,
ConnectEVE (FT800) can display a character only up to 127 (End Char: 127).
It is a limitation of the very chip.
Please, take a look at the FT800 Datasheet:

Thank you for your reply,
Is there no work around? Without trying to add the required character set within 127 character spaces?

Re: showing special characters
Just a small correction. FT800 will display first 128 characters in the exported font. Do you want the characters to be keyboard mapped or you just need a way to display them?

No need for it to me mapped to the keyboard just need display some of the extended character set.
I have temperately put that problem to one side as I have some HMI issues.
I am using a several (4) windows fonts and my understanding of the Mikro C generated code. Is that every time it writes a text that is not a system font it exports the font from the external memory and writes this to the controller EVERY TIME.
My understanding of the FT800 controller is that you can load a custom (windows) font to its G-RAM and the access it as you would a system font
This is where I am having problems in trying to load the Font into the G-RAM and accessing it.
Any tips or pointers would be appreciated.

Re: showing special characters
My question is mainly addressed to the SW developer and relies to GLCD font generator, precisely to Central Europe fonts - the upper half of the table (128 - 255) which mainly characterizes specific letters of this part of Europe (covered by ISO-8859-2) generated by GLCD is the same as for standard Western (ISO-8859-1). So as, it seems that there are not differences between them.
Kind regards
