A simple 8x8 Font Editor for uOLED device

Duffer did a fantastic job on the uOLED 128/160 display device objects.· While I was using his object, I quickly whipped up a simple/small 8x8 Font Editor app in .Net C#.· Attached is a screen shot and the executable + a dependency dll (both in the zip file).· You will need .Net 2.0 Runtime to run this app.· Extract the zip file to a folder and run the app. Simple.

    Nice work. Clean and simple. The only thing missingidea.gif ...
    A text box with·a prototype statement·that you can just copy and paste into your code...
    OLED.ADD_BITMAP (Chr, $60,$9F,$95,$64,$00,$00,$00,$00)

    Saves time and no mistakes copying the hex values.

    P.S.· And just to show that you haven't forgotten about·our Stamp cousins, a second box for Stampers...

    Very handy, ALIBE!

    I like the Inverse option. Maybe I'm looking at the app wrong, but if I select <Custom> in the Precanned dropdown, should I be able to put in my own Prefixes and suffixes. the text boxes don't seem to want to accept input when <Custom> is selected. Also, is the Clear button not functional? No biggie, just wondering.

    Thanks,· Steve

    Good catch Steve

    That was a sneaky bug was'nt she! I fixed that issue and added a couple more features. Updated the rev history and the binaries.

    Thanks, Nagi
