ST7565 Font

[mOSKit]

Hi, can you please tell me how to set different font and size? if style is not available than changing the size would be enough for me.
Thank you

There is no 'native' font for these displays. So it is built into the library. https://github.com/adafruit/ST7565-LCD/ ... glcdfont.c

It is an 8x5 pixel font. To change it would require some library hacking.

So if i generate new hex file say with some font generator would that work?
Neved done such thing

Yes. If the font generator can do 8x5 it should work with the existing code. Otherwise, you would need to hack the drawchar method:

Code: Select all

void  ST7565::drawchar(uint8_t x, uint8_t line, char c) {
  for (uint8_t i =0; i<5; i++ ) {
    st7565_buffer[x + (line*128) ] = pgm_read_byte(font+(c*5)+i);
    x++;
  }

  updateBoundingBox(x, line*8, x+5, line*8 + 8);
}
