Hi

I'm hoping there's a way to recreate a module I used to use in SE...

It was part of David Haupt's 'sub control' pack and could take a voltage/number and display it as a collection of 1 digit bmps.

Anyway, I did some searches on this forum, and found RL's excellent 'fontless' 7-segment display example. I'd love to convert this for use with my own LED font, but I'm finding the GUI side of SM tricky to get used to.

Has anyone already done this perchance?!

Cheers.

Actually, thinking about it..

It was a strip of 10 digits, not individual pngs.

I think i can make this feeding divisions (by 1000, by 100, etc) of the number I want displayed into a row of anim bitmap knob modules loaded with my strip.

Sorry, thinking out loud here....

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
