    True, it's not a piece of cake....
    In the end, my code going out to the 122x32 LCD looks like this:
    @ printstr 2 , 1 , "This is a string"

    Prints "This is a string" starting at X position 2 on the 2nd line down from the top.
    You can't get a whole lot easier than that!....well, once the code is in place anyways.

    At any rate, I'll look thru that datasheet a bit harder later on. Like I said, I understand my code (nobody else likes the way I write, but that's ok). If it really is that easy to convert over to the KS type controller, I'll have a go at it sometime this weekend and let you know when I get something done up. - DONE

    See the thread referenced in Post #29 for some code for the 128 x 64 graphic LCDs...and pay heed to the notes contained. I'll start a different thread once that code is tested and verified working.

    Default GLCD 132x32 with KS0713 controller

    Are these things hard to drive?
    Can I write, in PBP, simple programs to display text easily, or is it tres dificile?

    None de ceux que I know ne sont as this compliqué

    Basically, once you got a working example for a X controller, you just need to adapt it to another... looks easy huh?

    How to have success.. Buy both GLCD type, download and print both datasheet, buy a crate of beer, sit back and relax a little bit while comparing both datasheet.

    Then you try few things... and that's where the fun begin A swear jar is recommended

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
