Is is it possible to write images to the Basic screen? #12

Closed matwilso closed 3 years ago

matwilso commented 3 years ago

Would it be possible to write an image to the screen with the python API? Or does that require flashing the device?

Also, it is possible for me to write a custom flash programs if I want to customize what the buttons do and what the screen shows?

This is something I'm also curious about. My understanding is that the set_color(self,r, g, b) function will change the color of the entire screen.

This indicates to me that the serial communication layer doesn't have the ability to specify individual pixels, or full "frames" of information to change.

I'd also be interested in having this ability!

At present, the API can't operate the screen of basic. If you want to do that, you can do it through Arduino.
