That doesn't answer my question. I need to be able to animate the display with my own bit pattern as in the picture ...

It does answer the question "i would like to insert in the display buffer just before the animation my own bit pattern" - you use getGraphicObject() and use the MD_MAX72xx function to draw the graphic you want. If you now want to animate just this 'graphic' you will do it your code, as Parol will have no knowledge of this extra stuff on the display.

Without knowing the details of what you are trying to do I cannot suggest much more specific solution. Maybe describe what you are trying to do rather than the solution you think you need.
