Convert an image to pt-on commands?
« on: November 23, 2013, 11:49:31 am »
Today I wanted to make a QR-Code that would work on my TI-84+CSE.
However, because of the large size of image and pic vars, I wanted to make the image into pt-on( commands.
However, I am too lazy to hard code it :X
So I was wondering if there was a program to do it for me.
I already tried SourceCoder, but it just gives my AXE hex data.
So is there a way to do this, or am I going to have to do it all manually?

if you have the data in hex then that's all you need. just stick it directly into your program, assign it a pointer, and then, during runtime, copy it to the screen buffer and update the display.

But he wants that in Basic for his 84+CSE, so I guess Axe won't do his job.
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

Thanks for the help anyway, I now know how to do it on grayscale. :)
Still wish there was an easier way then hard coding 4x4 pxl-on commands.

you could use an OS Pic variable, couldn't you?

I think he said he didn't want to do that because of the size it takes up.
Visit my GitHub for all my TI programs as well as other projects.

Well I tried using an ImageVar anyway. Image was 265x165. Just enough for the calculator. It got scaled and all blurred.
EDIT : I'll just use AssemblyBandit's IViewer lib.
