Jepp, that's my standard setting.

It would be nice to have a way to blank only part of the screen. I tried overwriting text with spaces but that had no effect.
It looks to me the fonts I added are "transparent" fonts and don't overwrite the background.
The used font are u8g2_font_luBS08_tf, ..10, 14, 18 & u8g2_font_luBS24_tf.
Take a look here https://github.com/olikraus/u8g2/wiki/fntlistall for an list of fonts.
"Transparent" fonts have an "t" in the font name like "u8g2_font_u8glib_4_tf".
I can add some fonts for you if you like, we have enough space in the ESP.

Ok

That'd be nice. If you have the space put the non-transparent equivalent of each of the existing ones on perhaps? That'll allow all sorts of special effects for whatever sizes.

I haven't found the same Font as Non-Transparent but I added 4 new Non-Transparent Fonts which have a smaller width and one "Icon" Font .

See here https://github.com/olikraus/u8g2/wiki/fntlistall for how they look like.

Code: Select all

0:  u8g2_font_luBS08_tf    (20x12, 8 Pixel A, Transparent)
1:  u8g2_font_luBS10_tf    (26x15, 10 Pixel A, Transparent)
2:  u8g2_font_luBS14_tf    (35x22, 14 Pixel A, Transparent)
3:  u8g2_font_luBS18_tf    (44x28, 18 Pixel A, Transparent)
4:  u8g2_font_luBS24_tf    (61x40, 24 Pixel A, Transparent)
5:  u8g2_font_profont12_mf (6x12, 8 Pixel A, Non-Transparent)
6:  u8g2_font_profont17_mf (9x17, 11 Pixel A, Non-Transparent)
7:  u8g2_font_profont22_mf (12x22, 14 Pixel A, Non-Transparent)
8:  u8g2_font_profont29_mf (16x29, 19 Pixel A, Non-Transparent)
9:  u8g2_font_open_iconic_all_2x_t (16x16 Icons, Transparent)
Font Size Values are Width x Height and the Height for Character A

Fonts 0-4 are the original Transparent Fonts, 5-8 are 4 new Non-Transparent Fonts, 9 is an 16x16 Pixel Icon Font.

The Format is "xxx,yy,f,[Text]" (f instead of s ;) )

Code: Select all

xxx = 3 Digits X-Position 000..255
yy  = 2 Digits Y-Position 00..63 
f   = Font Type, see list above
If we need more fonts I have to change "f" from 1 to 2 digits.

Example

Code: Select all

1: echo "att" > /dev/ttyUSB0                # Is needed
2: echo "TEXTOUTXY" > /dev/ttyUSB0          # Enable TEXTOUTXY Mode
3: echo "010,20,5,Text Out" > /dev/ttyUSB0  # Show "Text Out" with Font 5 at Position X=10,Y=20.
I hope this helps :D

Unfortunately the new fonts don't overwrite existing ones it seems. I also tried using the symbolic font, but those didn't overwrite either. Not the end of the world - the support as-is works well. The new fonts are a little more stylized, which gives a different aesthetic. May be nice for some use cases!

The Icon Font is also a Transparent one.

Minor Update USB Version related to TEXTOUTXY
No need for leading Zero's for X and Y Values.
The Format is now "x,y,f,[Text]", fully compatible to the old format "xxx,yy,f,[Text]".

Code: Select all

x = X-Position 0..255
y = Y-Position 0..63 
f = Font Type 0..10
Enabled Font 10

Code: Select all

10: u8g2_font_lucasarts_scumm_subtitle_o_tf (Nice 12 Pixel Font, Transparent)

EDIT : figured it out, see bottom for pinout for this display, if anyone purchases from digikey, mouser etc... and uses it with ESP8266 NodeMCU

Ok so i've uploaded the arduino code to the esp8266, but I don't think the pinout of my display matches with the picture on the wiki...

From what I gather from the spec sheet, i'll have to ground pin 19 and 20 to set it to 4-wire serial... But the rest some don't match?

Zo3EmTc.png

Pin 1 and 2 remain the same as the picture...
Pin 3 no connect, but looks like I need to ground pin 6 ?

Need help for the rest...

This is the display :
https://www.newhavendisplay.com/specs/N ... 64UCY2.pdf

EDIT pinout for display that works with ESP8266 NodeMCU :


Pin 1 : GND
Pin 2 : +3V
Pin 3 : NC
Pin 4 : D2
Pin 5 : GND
Pin 6 : GND
Pin 7 : D5
Pin 8 : D7
Pin 9 : NC
Pin 10 : GND
Pin 11 : GND
Pin 12 : GND
Pin 13 : GND
Pin 14 : GND
Pin 15 : NC
Pin 16 : D1
Pin 17 : D8
Pin 18 : NC
Pin 19 : GND
Pin 20 : GND

Specifically, writing a " " (space) character doesn't create a blank area under it no matter which font type I use. I was hoping to do this so I could wipe part of the screen - not the whole thing with "cls".

Weird, this works for me. Tested from the Arduino Serial Monitor under Windows.

Did you update the Arduino Programm to the latest version after I added the new fonts?

Anyway, I will try to add a command to to draw rectangles filled/unfilled in front or background colour.

Nice that you have the possibility to set the Display-Mode via MCU.

Yes! It works!

Here is the connection schema if you want to add it to the website/wiki!
(Actually I'll try to put it on git and do a pull request)

Yeah it's nice to set it via MCU, didnt see myself unsoldering and resoldering those tiny resistors... But I'm sure the display is more costly though :(
Paid 51$ Canadian 4 days ago, now they brought them up to 62$ Canadian :(

Can't figure out how to do pull requests for wiki edits... not sure it's possible on git, anyway, this would be my changes for the Arduino-HowTo-(Windows).md page :

Code: Select all

Add `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json`  
to **"Additional Boards Manager URL's"**  
For ESP8266 , add ` https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json`
Enable at **"Show verbose output during:"** the options **"compilation"** and **"upload"**. 
It's the line :

You inspired me with that 8BitDo.

Had to get one ( and do a little swap of some buttons and the stick ), what a lovely bit of kit.

I also disconnected the power from the symbols that appear by the buttons and updated the firware from ( https://support.8bitdo.com/ultimate/arcade_stick.html ) which allows you to assign a keyboard button to P1 and P2 so they can now be used with the MiSTer as they are seen as a keypress.

My updated stick...

Your Pictures, except Space Invaders which was already created by stefer09 yesterday,
and 3 new ones by stefer09 (Dig Dug 2, Game of Life and 1942) are now available at Github for the Updater.

I added your RAR File to Github as well.

Many Thanks

stefer09 created Graphic Versions of 280-ZZZZAP, Amidar, AY-3-8500.xbm and Ballon Bomber.

If my calculation is correct we have now exactly 300 cores supported with Graphic or Text based Pictures.

Thx to all picture contributors :D

Is online.

If someone like to run an "Testing Version" take a look here:
https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_tt ... SB_Testing

It brings "Over The Air" (OTA) Update Capabilities to your ESP32 and some updates for "Commands".
If your ESP32 is in "Over The Air" Mode you should see an new Network Port in the IDE which can be used for further Updates.

INI File Update available

INI Option "OVERWRITE" was renamed to "OVERWRITE_PICTURE".

stefer09 added US-Naming based XBM Pictures and an new INI Option "USE_US_PICTURE" to enable the Download of them.
See https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_tt ... res/XBM_US

If you like the US Pictures set "USE_US_PICTURE" to "yes".

If there are Pictures available as "Normal" and "US" Version they will be downloaded twice :shock: each Update Cycle
if "USE_US_PICTURES" is set to "yes" and "OVERWRITE_PICTURE" is also set to "yes".
We are trying to solve the „double download“ ;)

I picked up this 2-pack of in-line microUSB power switches so I can turn my tty2oled screen on and off independently from the MiSTer. Thought it might be of interest to some of you!

You are welcome :D

Your case looks good!
Did you share your case design somewhere?

Did you use one of the PCBs or how did you build it?
And can I use the picture for the gallery?
