Hi,
For my robot,
I'm writing a GLCD (graphic LCD) program,
to convert .BMP files to .PIX files for use with these GLCDs.
see:http://www.marc-systems.be/new_2010/hob ... ftware.htm
I like to use DOS FONT (8 bit/character),
I found LUCIDA CONSOLE font.
Q: How can I use this font in the PB editor ?
I tried to do this but is dos not show the ALT-202... graphic characters.
Thanks,
Marc

Hello marc
OK, but why do you want to see them in the PB editor? If the characters are used for the display, what did you mean about converting BMP files to PIX files? Is it because the display does not support the font? Even more confused now......
Edit: Hmm, something like these guys?

I could imagine a drag n drop gui designer coded in PB for these things, perhaps that is your goal?
