The description is: message Data { uint3 the = 1 uint3 bit = 2 uint5 level = 3 uint4 data = 4 uint11 interchange = 6 uint6 format = 7 }

data-encoding-sample

As far as I understood, from playing with the python generated code, the 3 bits of 'the' won't be the 3 MSB of the first bytes, they would be the 3 LSB for the first byte. So the image should be:

data-encoding-sample_drawn

Is that correct?

interesting question.

how about this?

This figures that the lower bit end is on the left side.
