Bitmap2LCD Limited Edition : Comprehensive GLCD designer with a working canvas, text and hex editors, batch processing for the text editor, graphic preview, and more
Bitmap2LCD Limited Edition is a comprehensive software solution dedicated to designing monochrome and greyscale graphic LCDs (GLCDs). It comes packed with features for turning color into black and white, GLCD vectors, and support for implementing data arrays as both output and input, among others.
Create monochrome and greyscale GLCDs
Following a speedy setup operation that shouldn't give you any trouble, you're welcomed by multiple panels for the working canvas, graphics preview, text and hex editors, batch processing mode for the text editor, serial communications, fonts and adjustment panels. These windows can be managed from the toolbar of the main panel.
Working canvas, graphics preview, text and hex editor, and more
The data array and hex editor can be imported into the working canvas while this can be converted to black and white (threshold or dithering mode). There are many presets available for the work canvas size, ranging from 96x40 to 1024x768, but it's also possible to define a custom width and height. Inflate and deflate zoom modes are put at your disposal too, along with various selection areas, like contiguous pixels with or without diagonals.As far as special effects are concerned, you can correct a single pixel color surrounded by 5-8 pixels of the same color, keep performing this action until there are no changes remaining, as well as correct single pixels color horizontal lines only, vertical lines only, or both. Once the artwork is ready, you can save it as a graphic or vector file.
