Nikolai Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Hi.I'm workning on cutting the track names down to 4 charaters (one 2X40 lcd) Axel posted a sugestion about shifting the unwanted characters to somewhere "off-screen" this is a good idea, but it raises some problems (at least to me) : I have not found a way to posistion (x) in the upper line only. I change the values in LC_hlp.inc LC_HLP_MsgCursorPos JUMPTABLE_2BYTES 55 ... retlw    0x00 + 14 retlw    0x00 + 15 ... retlw    0x00 + 40 \\charaters moved out of the screen the problem is that when I shuffel the charaters off screen the Host msgs also get changedIs there a better way of doing this? or Is there a way of more exactly setting the X,Y position. ?Thank you.Nikolai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Hi Nikolai,you could create a second jumptable for the lower line and use this in lc_clcd.inc, below LC_CLCD_Msg_CursorUpdate_XL, when LC_CURSOR, 6 is set. But this possibly won't really solve your problem once the host prints informations at the lower line which relate to the tracks. The problem is, that the protocol doesn't provide some kind of "type of message" which allows to seperate between different layouts - I've no idea for a general workaround solutionBest Regards, Thorsten.

Nikolai Posted December 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Hithank you. I have already tryed with 2 jumptables, or turning it on/off, works quite ok, all though sometimes the lcd does not clear properly.anyway, the Huston lcd driver works fantastic on one 2x40, naturaly... maybe I will use this instead. but why do they have to pas the data like that(?) Makes it hard to customize when it's all steinbergish ;)well I'll figure something out. thanks anyway.Nikolai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
