OLED: Stream longer than pixels on display

Hey people,

I have a question:
I use OLEDs with a resolution of 128 x 64. I use them in a row. I set up a sysex-stream which shows text on the displays. This stream is set to lcd(1:1:1). 

If the text takes more space than 128px, the rest gets printed on the next screen(s). I know that this could be useful. But not in my application. Can I somehow disable that? I took a look into the code but I didn't find it yet. 

Each OLED should get it's own stream. If I do not push the streams in the correct order (f.e. first stream 2 => OLED 2 and then stream 1 => OLED 1) it will overwrite stream 2 of the 2nd OLED.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
It's maybe not exactly what you want, but you can try to rearrange the OLED in Column instead of Row, and work with the lines.
By using the help menu in the bootloader.

set lcd_num_x (number of LCDs in X direction)

and

set lcd_num_y (number of LCDs in Y direction)

Not sure this will help you, but it can already force a line return after 128 pixels if you set lcd_num_x to 1.

Best
Bruno
