Introduction

This is the "Hello World" example for Ucglib:

#include <SPI.h>
#include "Ucglib.h"

Ucglib_ST7735_18x128x160_SWSPI ucg(/*sclk=*/ 13, /*data=*/ 11, /*cd=*/ 9 , /*cs=*/ 10, /*reset=*/ 8);

void setup(void){
  delay(1000);
  ucg.begin(UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT);
  ucg.clearScreen();
}

void loop(void){
  ucg.setRotate90();
  ucg.setFont(ucg_font_ncenR14_tr);
  ucg.setPrintPos(0,25);
  ucg.setColor(255, 255, 255);
  ucg.print("Hello World!");

  delay(500);  
}

The constructor in line

Ucglib_ST7735_18x128x160_SWSPI ucg(/*sclk=*/ 13, /*data=*/ 11, /*cd=*/ 9 , /*cs=*/ 10, /*reset=*/ 8);

will setup Ucglib for a display with ST7735 controller. A complete list of available constructors is here.

Migration from v1.01 to v1.02

Rename Fonts

All existing fonts have to be renamed:

• If font ends in r, replace r with _tr
• If font ends in n, replace n with _tn
• For all other fonts: add _tf

Font Mode UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID

This mode is still supported, however, this mode requires special fonts. Use _hf, _hr, _hn or _mf, _mr and _mn (whatever is avialable) for best quality.

Functions setFontMode() and begin()

UCG_FONT_MODE_NONE is not supported any more. It is still there, but behaves like UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT

User Reference Manual

begin

• C++ Prototype:

uint8_t Ucglib::begin(ucg_font_mode_fnptr fontmode)

• Description: Send init code to the display, setup internal data structures and define the text output mode. Use this command in the setup() of the Arduino ".ino" file. The font mode can be changed later with the setFontMode command. However, using both methods will increase the code size of the library. If text output is not required at all, then using UCG_FONT_MODE_NONE will greatly reduce code size.
• Arguments:
  • fontmode: UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT, UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID or UCG_FONT_MODE_NONE
• Returns: 0, if the init procedure fails.
• See also: setFontMode

• Example:

setFont

• C++ Prototype:

void Ucglib::setFont(const ucg_fntpgm_uint8_t *font)

• Description: Set the current font for all text and print procedures. All fonts will start with ucg_font_ and will have a two character postfix (since v1.02). These two characters indicate (1) the purpose of the font (t transparent, m monospace, h common height, 8 8x8 box) and (2) the number of glyphs in the font (f full, r reduced, n numbers).
• Arguments:
  • font: Pointer to the ucg font. Fonts, which are part of Ucglib start ucg_font_. A list of all available fonts is here.
• Returns: 0, if the init procedure fails.

• Note: See also Arduino example "HowToUseFonts"
• Example:

ucg.setFont(ucg_font_ncenB18_tf);
ucg.setPrintPos(45,10);
ucg.print("Ucg");

Version v1.02 has a new font naming convention. Second to last character of the font name is the "Font Purpose" and the last character indicates the "Font Char Set".

Font Purpose	Description
t	Transparent font, use together with UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT. t is identical to h but font size is smaller.
h	All glyphs have common height, use together with UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT and UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID.
m	All glyphs have common height and width (monospace), use together with UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT and UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID.
8	All glyphs have common height and width, use together with UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT and UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID. Height and width are devisible by 8.

Font Char Set	Description
f	The font includes all glyphs of the original font (up to 256).
r	Only glyphs on the range of the ASCII codes 32 to 127 are included in the font.
n	Only numbers and extra glyphs for writing date and time strings are included in the font.

Example	Description
ucg_font_helvB08_tf	Helvetica bold font for UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT which includes ASCII codes from 32 to 255
ucg_font_inr53_mr	Monospace font rendered from Inconsolata true type font with restricted glyph set (32-127)
ucg_font_amstrad_cpc_8f	A monospace font, where glyphs fit into 8x8 pixel block

setFontMode

• C++ Prototype:

void Ucglib::setFontMode(ucg_font_mode_fnptr fontmode) 

• Description: Define the text output mode.
  See examples below for the difference between UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT and UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID. Do not use transparent fonts with UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID.
• Arguments:
  • fontmode: UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT, UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID or UCG_FONT_MODE_NONE (obsolete since v1.02)
• Returns: 0, if the init procedure fails.
• See also: begin setFont
• Note: UCG_FONT_MODE_NONE is obsolete in v1.02
• Example 1: UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT

  ucg.setFont(ucg_font_ncenB18_tf);
  ucg.setFontMode(UCG_FONT_MODE_TRANSPARENT);
  ucg.setPrintPos(42, 40);
  ucg.setColor(0, 0, 0, 0);       // black color for the text
  ucg.print("Ucg");

• Example 2: UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID

  ucg.setFont(ucg_font_ncenB18_hf);	// do not use _tf for UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID
  ucg.setFontMode(UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID);
  ucg.setPrintPos(42, 40);
  ucg.setColor(0, 0, 0, 0);       // black color for the text
  ucg.setColor(1, 150, 220, 255); // light blue for the background
  ucg.print("Ucg");

• Example 3: The following picture shows, that transparent (_tf) fonts will not look good with the UCG_FONT_MODE_SOLID mode (upper left). Also note, that the common height of the glyphs depend on the number of glyphs in the font (lower left vs. lower right).
