LCD software

You may have a look here http://www.oshonsoft.com/pic.html.

You can use the trial version of the simulator and set colours in four different ways (backgrounds: light, dark, green and blue).

Unfortunately, I can't attach any files at the moment (?!) but have a look here, I have used the "dark" background: http://home.citycable.ch/flotulopex/..._e.htm#Display.

Roger, thanks for the links. I've had a reply from the author of the LCD screen shot generator advising me how to process the images.

I had tried the simulator software, but found it was difficult to get the display to work with the hex code...

I've now managed to generate the images for my document - thanks for all the input guys

Hi Malcolm,

Please post the author's comments on how to process the colours - otherwise I will need to bother him with the same request you made...

Thanks and regards,
Bill

OK found it...

Hi Malcolm,

I receive request for a particular color scheme quite often and unfortunately there is no way to address them all - the color scheme box would have hundreds of options. Until I find the time to redesign the applet to support custom colors, what I can advise you is to get a black & white image and then to use any image editing package to change the color. It takes seconds. For example, if you use GIMP (it's free), you can load the image and get your colors by selecting Colors -> Colorize and drag the Hue slider to 220 or something. Here is the result:

First you have to Inverse the picture and then apply the colorize.



On Photoshop fr example:

1. Control + I to inverse
2. Image->Hue/Saturation
2a. Click on Colorize
2b. Set Hue to 220
2c. Set Saturation to 100
2d. Click OK.

Now you have from Green a White dots on Blue background.
