While waiting for my hardware to arrive, I've been playing with a ViSi-Genie project. I plan to have a few buttons and a window that I send text to, like a terminal window. It looked like my best option is a strings object in book mode, but the 3 lines of text overwrite each other. Doesn't matter what font size I select. Will the real hardware behave the same way? What can I do to fix this?

Hi,
On the actual display the string newline will work correctly. Just to confirm are you only using one string object?
You can also learn more about the string object in ViSi-Genie from our application note https://docs.4dsystems.com.au/app-note/4D-AN-00013
I hope this helps,
Best RegardsLast edited by Jerson; 13 August 2020, 11:15 AM.

Was your example above just a single String Object in Book mode, and you have 3 lines?
We have tested this here and ours do no overlap at all like your image shows. This is only a single String object, correct?
Can you maybe attach your project (zipped) so we can have a closer look as to how you are getting what you are seeing in your picture?James

The string element is book mode, with a single string of text. This text has linefeeds in it to create multiple lines. I'll attach the zip file.Attached Files
