Text parts seems having growth since AM3.5

Do nothing at present as Corjan has stated that it will change again. It's clearly got issues with sizing and positioning.

Ah yes, not really the fault of the operating system. The library file loading order is not guaranteed so the previous code was obviously incorrectly implemented. As you've done the way to ensure a certain order is to put them in functions and call them in the order you want.

Tony,

I must congratulate you on a very informative series so far. I have been enlightened and learned many little apects.

Thank you for your time in producing this series.

Keith

Thanks Keith.

For pretty much the same reason, I choose to not implement brightness.

I don't think not having control over the brightness is a big deal as that can be done in hardware anyway.

Does that mean you will remove it from the API?

Tony

Here's a little teaser.

Again no bug but glad to report HD44780 also working very nicely.

Tony

Good Stuff Corjan. All working here very nicely indeed. Another tick in a box.

Tony

Its not a bug but glad to report button array works as expected for me. Tick that box.

Some feedback on 8 segment operation. I implemented this with a 3 digit common cathode display that I had lying around. Observations/Good Points Got it to work. Digit drive transistors required. Only numerical characters, DP and "-" are allowed other characters display as blanks. These all...

I’m interested to know what caused them to work on windows but not Mac or Linux?
