The bitmap drawing is not compatible with the img2cpp websites. The data needs to be fliped every 8bits.

Describe the bug

I'm using https://javl.github.io/image2cpp/ for converting the images into xbm data. However the data generated cannot be displayed correctly. xbm image is flipped every 8 bit.

ESP8266 0.91 inch 128x32 ssd1306 oled.

This incompatible issue can be rebuilt on web tools: http://dot2pic.com/ https://diyusthad.com/image2cpp https://javl.github.io/image2cpp/

They are the most easy to use web tools for xbm binary data generation that I can find.

ive been struggling with the result which is display not compatible. does flipped every 8 bit. can someone show me the right method ?

you must use GIMP to export the images in 1-bit XBM format. Works perfectly

@sonictl You don't need to use Gimp. The website (https://javl.github.io/image2cpp/) works fine, if you adjust the output settings:

• No Image Rotation
• Draw Mode: Horizontal (1bit)
• Swap bits in byte: swap <-- This is the important setting.

Thanks for the issue! Without your information, I wouldn't have figured that out.
