module_text_display in sc_lcd for LCD slice

[pstnotpd]

On the XMOS site there is a zip of the package sc_lcd (v1.0.2) which includes a module_text_display. It is also briefly mentioned in the documentation. When unpacking the zip file the module appears as a subdirectory of sc_lcs

in the xTIMEcomposer the module_lcd also appears to come from package sc_lcd 1.0.2, but there no sign of the module_text_display.

Does anybody know the procedure for using this module in a project? Or is this for future release?

The module_text_display is currently being worked on, it will be initially for rendering a specific font to the image buffer before sending it to the lcd_server. Its primary use is for the display_controller.

If you want to use it (not recommended in its current state) then you can check it out from github and import it manually.

Hope that helps.

Hi, presuming that I could also import the module from the mentioned zipfile, how would it import to an XDE project? I can't find it in the documentation.
