In this video, I will show you how to use any font that you have installed on your computer. This method can be used with the TFT_eSPI library and the LovyanGFX library.

Thanks for all your hard work, and for showing us all how to make our projects more unique. I wonder if you can use this method to add multiple fonts to a display.

@BlondieSL 8 месяцев назад

Hmm... a few days ago, I made a comment on your video about how nice the fonts are that you use and that I can never seem to get such nice looking fonts. So now I wonder if that's why you made this video. LOL If so, then thanks! But seriously, you make all this look so easy. I wonder too, is there a way to enable some sort of anti-aliasing (smoothing) to a font package?

Very cool and very informative as usual. One question: is there a way to scale the fonts up and down in the sketch without sampling a font of each size and saving it in an header file?

@VolosProjects Месяц назад

No, i am afraid this is only way, store each size in memory

@ka2pyj 2 месяца назад

Great videos. I am trying to choose a device for a very simple project to display an eye chart on a device about the size of the T-Panel S3. I need to display black fonts as small as 7 point on a white background. Can you tell me if 7 point fonts are achievable?

{ I find that most people call these curly brackets } - Although, here where I live they are often know as Tuborg brackets, because of the original shape of the label on the Tuborg beer bottles. 🍺😆

How about to make a font with ONLY NUMBERS (in case you want to print only numbers and save space) because the font files are big and you will get "text section exceeds available space in board"

I would like to convert a 3D Glass Nixie Tube image to a font, so that I could have a Nixie tube volt meter.. The tube image I have looks great, but it did not have a decimal point. Is there a way to convert 3D images to a 3D font?

I really enjoy watching your videos. The UI designs you create are very beautiful. Even though I'm new to ESP32, I'm still drawn to your projects. I'd like to ask you about the AMOLED screen on the 'T-Display S3 AMOLED.' Does the AMOLED screen cause discomfort to your eyes? I've had an uncomfortable experience with OLED screens on phones before. Sorry, my English skills are not very good, so perhaps my expression isn't clear.

@VolosProjects 6 месяцев назад

Thank you my friend, to me amoled screen looks beaudiful.. and nice and pleasibg to look at, only thing you need to do is reduce brightness,... dont worry, i have same priblem with english

@user-qx2ru2qs2g 6 месяцев назад

@@VolosProjects Thank you for your response. I can confidently purchase an AMOLED screen now. I'm interested in working on some fun projects. For instance, I have a few 433 MHz garage door remotes and some RFID access cards. I want to integrate them all, controlled by an ESP32-S3. I'm currently searching for information. Do you have any suggestions? I hope that after successful research, I can create my own PCB board, which feels really cool!

Great explanation - but I can't get any further implementing sprites on my ESP32 with attached 2.8'' TFT 320x240 display. Using a single sprite with full size "sprite.createSprite(320,240);" there is no visible output. If I divide the entire screen into four equal areas "sprite.createSprite(160,120);", then it works great - but it's uncomfortable... Is there a way to use one sprite for the entire display size?
