Hi Jorgen,

It'll be easier to help with more details. For example:

In what way is it not working? Are there compilation errors? Is it in simulation or when downloading to the chip?

Hi Jorgen,

In Flowcode v9 we have changed the way fonts work. I'll make a video on it later today to try and help explain it.

In v8 and previous we had a single font and the font parameter was the scaler for that single font.

Now in v9 we have several different fonts you can choose to use in your program. In your program you only have font 0 selected and hence you need to use the value 0 for the font parameter.

You can no longer scale fonts but the fonts are all different sizes to let you pick a nice sized font for you application. The vertical size of each font is written at the end of the font name.

A font with the word Number in the text can only print numeric characters '0' to ''9' and a few other symbols such as '-', ':' to keep the ROM usage down when creating things like clocks or calculators etc with very large characters.

Hi Jorgen,

I've now made a short video here which hopefully should help explain things.
