Only AN6 (ADC_UNREG_POWER) changes when the charger is plugged (besides PADR, which is used to detect the charger), which already is used to read the voltage level. > What's the reason we can't use the same icon?

Below that is two lines of characters (hence the name of the define HAVE_LCD_CHARCELL). 4-8 characters (depending on player model) can be used for custom characters and Rockbox uses them for progress bars and characters the LCD doesn't support by default. > To avoid confusion with the clock, I was going to make the time display > have an "h" character in place of the ":", so it will look like 10h15. The player doesn't have a clock, so that wouldn't be a problem there. :) -- Magnus HolmgrenReceived on 2003-06-14 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
