tago Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I'll have 4 oleds (4x 128x64) in a row as main section of my controller. The problem is that the 4 SCS soft buttons below a tiny oled do not fit nicely (two buttons width = single oled width). 1. Is there an alternative way to control the SCS? 2. How can i change the SCS font size? 3. Is it possible to display the SCS across all 4 OLEDs? Are there any modified SCS layouts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tago Posted February 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) Some time ago i posted an image of the desired layout here Edited February 6, 2017 by tago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psykhaze Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 A look over the SVN always help : http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios32&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fcontrollers%2Fmidibox_ng_v1%2Fsrc%2Fscs_config.c After a detailed read you should be able to get rid of some problems ;) Greets, Jerome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tago Posted February 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Thanks Jerome! I found an scs variant (ilmenator) in tutorials. It seems to use a single soft button and an encoder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tago Posted February 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) In scs_lcd.h there is the SCS_LCD_NUM_DEVICES var. I tried to change it 2, but nothing happens. Are there other related vars that have to be changed? Edit: had to adjust SCS_LCD_COLUMNS_PER_DEVICE and SCS_MENU_ITEM_WIDTH and got it working Edited February 9, 2017 by tago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tago Posted February 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) If use GLCD_FONT_BIG and set SCS_LCD_COLUMNS_PER_DEVICE 10 SCS_MENU_ITEM_WIDTH 5 i count 8 chars/columns per display, but would expect 10. Any ideas why it's that way? Edited February 9, 2017 by tago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 ...because 16x8 = 128? :-) Many greets, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 No problem! :-) Yes, the display has 128 pixels horizontally, each character of the big font uses 16 pixels, so you will only have 8 columns (any configuration of SCS_LCD_COLUMNS_PER_DEVICE above 8 cannot work due to physical display restrictions).

tago Posted February 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Makes sense. I'll prepare a custom font in the end anyway. Next i'd like to change the control elements. I'd prefer 4 encoders (see pic in second post) instead of 4 soft btns + encoder or a select btn + encoder combo. Do you think it's possible? How hard will it be to implement?

latigid on Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 At some point it stops being an "SCS" and starts being a custom MBNG. You will get a better idea of what's possible by reading through the documentation: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual_ngc.htmlhttp://www.ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tago Posted February 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 To select submenus buttons will be needed anyway, right? Maybe i should consider push button encoder. Is there a MB project which has something similar done before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
