Widgets in serial slave mode?

[vleino]

I'm learning the system slowly, so looking for ways to do things best... I'm working with Arduino Due & uOLED-160-G2.

I'm planning to show the four digit number in a display with some additional graphical information on the side. Is there a easy way to use the ViSi widgets and fonts in a serial environment, or should I aim to somewhere else? I get the raw images from the SD card, but couldn't find information about the widgets.

Thanks!

Hi,

You can create the graphics like you have done in Visi and then use the Serial environment to control the display. Please take a look at these appnotes

There is also this appnote that deals with fonts

I hope this helps

Thanks for these! The AN's are good, finding them is just a little difficult, as the search button on your pages brings out only products.

Just to confirm, the Goldelox_Serial_4DLib_h is the only library to be used. If I copy for example Leddigits to SD card in project build, there is no way to use them in SPI application?

Hi,

Just following up on this as our Appnotes section has been updated and has a new search function so might be worth taking another look.
