RE: Graphic LCD Project

Richard,
At this time I'm having trouble getting started.
I am also a student, just want to display a single picture,
having trouble doing that.
I am using a 128x128 display.
Check out:

This is what has been helping me along.
Hope this site will be of some use.

Best regards,
Steve

I'll be interested in seeing any code _ it's got to be better commented
than mine!

I'm helping a couple of students using these graphic LCDs but can't get a
cursor to display _ maybe I'm just reading the data sheets wrong. Have
you/anybody managed to display a text cursor? One part of one of the
projects involves displaying an alphabet (upper & lower & misc) and using
left, right and select buttons to select characters that are then copied
to another part of the screen to write a string. At present since we can't
get the cursor to show it's self we are using the text attributes to
highlight (blink) the characters, but blinking a space is interesting!
