FT813 VisualTFT character set

[vojinilic]

Dear,

can you please tell me how can I extend character set over ASCII 127 that will be shown on display as EveText? I want to display degree symbol. I've used resource collection, created extended font Tahoma, Windows font, size 32, bold, start chr 0, end chr 255. Degree symbol cannot be shown on display over FT813.
Can you please help me?
I use my own board and ATxmega MCU.

Best,
Vojin

Hi Vojin,

There are few posts on the forum that explain how to use non-ASCII characters in Visual TFT
I would suggest you to read this posts:

and project on LibStock:

Let me know if you haven't managed to display those characters, post or send us the code.


Kind regards,
Petar

Hi Petar,

thank you very much for your answer. I've already read those posts. I dont know how to create font with extended ascii and to store it on uSD card, because my resources are stored on uSD card.
