- PIXEL BOARD 1.0
-
- Written in Visual Basic 3.0 Prof.
-
- Wrote this up in about 6 hours for an app I'm working on.
- Feel free to modify it and use it in your programs. If
- you do use it and make it better, please email me with
- the improvements... It's not perfect but it does what I
- need it to. There's not a whole lot of comments, since
- it's pretty straight forward.
-
- I didn't add all the ASCII chars, since I didn't need them.
-
- Here's the format for the character set:
-
- char file = board.bmp
- Each character is 18 pixels wide.
- 94 Possible chars, ASC(32) to ASC(126) [inclusive]
-
- If you wanted to add the "[" you would do the following:
- "["= ASC(91)
-
- 91-32=59
- 59*18= 1062
-
- Open Paint Brush
- load board.bmp
- View|Cursor Position
- scroll over to x = 1062
- draw in the "["
- save the bitmap
-
- load visual basic and open the project file
- refresh: picChar.Picture = board.bmp
-
- That's it!!!
