sounds good.

Hey its not nearly crashing as much as it did with 2.x or 3.x :)

Well, that's good. Too bad it doesn't really produce any output to tell you what's happening. Running it from the command line, I can pretty much type whatever I want and it just silently either does or does not do something.

While ...

They are and they are not, The microframework lacks the ability to load fonts from the SD card, so we had to wrap them in a small assembly.

Since you seem like a guy who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty, I'll attach a small project with the bits of the GTT Project tool that does the work ...

No worries Mike, good to see you're giving the GTT quite the test drive.

Like previous displays, the GTT will only report in one of two basic modes: region or coordinate. I believe you've hit on the solution to your problem in running in coordinate mode and faking buttons. I did a simple drawing ...

Are these just renamed tiny fonts? Because if so, I can just generate my fonts with the ,Net Micro framework tools. I've tested those, and the tiny font tool GUI works to create tiny fonts for me.

Hi Mike,

Sorry to hear the previous fix is not working. We do have a new release of GTT Tools out today, in addition to the firmware release. Please download revision 1.0.0.40 and install outside of your program files.

If you can post each basic step you take before the program crashes, we'll ...

Sorry for all the posts, I'm hitting all types of new things as I try to port the screens that I'm drawing in GDI/Windows across to the GTT displays.

For change reporting style, the manual states that:

0 - no event reporting
1 - down region events only
2 - Up region events only
3 - Down and up ...

just of out curiosity can you install/copy the tool outside the program files folder does the error go away?

When he did, it went away. Don't know why he didn't post an update :) Thanks for the fix.

Yea, that fix isn't working on our computer that we have our displays hooked up to. I've tried ...

Well, I flash version 3066 and have been playing with it for about 45 minutes now.

Definitely has a bit of an upgrade. It's speed was fast enough to try and add some more of our feature set.

I'm doing:

DrawMultipleBarGraphs()
ChangeDrawingColor(Color.FromArgb(50,50,50))
DrawFilledRectangle(new ...

Troy,

Thanks for the updated link.

Flashing the updates now, and I'll have some impressions later today. The manual is still at Revision 1.0 on the site, so if any extra features have been updated/changed then the manual hasn't been updated.

One of these days, could upgrading not overwrite my ...

Link on the page you posted in broken.

Took a little figuring out, but it should point here instead:

Is the directory support documented in the manual? Where do I learn about that part?

Awhile back it was mentioned that a future firmware will have some filesystem functions to allow for uploading of images (hopefully this will also allow uploading images to the ram buffer so the SD card doesn't have to be hit as often)
...
It would be very nice to be able to quickly upload new ...

I'd love to see what you are building! if you have spec sheets or video you'd want to share I'd love to see them! Seeing what customers do with our products is a great way for us to see what can can improve on and make the product even easier to use.

Now on perf, FW 1.01 update (just released ...

Hi Mike,

Glad the bargraph workaround will fit in your application, we are working on firmware updates for major issues to minimize these workarounds. I have a projected date from Engineering for the first round of major fixes, which I can say can be expected early next week. After the major ...
