Hi,
I have installed Flowcode 8 and I don't have any licence and using the 30 days trial. I am trying to compile a program using LCD 16x2. LCD is showing abnormal characters in simulation. But the same program is running fine in another computer with the same Matrix account. I uninstalled and reinstalled but the problem did not go.
Thanks.

Hello,
Please can you attach the following.
1) your Flowcode project file
2) a screen shot of how it is looking on your PC
and we will investigate for you.

Anything I want to show the LCD shows these rectangular shapes.

Hello,
Your program is working well here for me. What version of Windows are you using?
The LCD component uses the FixedSys font and so if you don't have this font available (which you should) then this could explain the problems you're having.

It's windows 7 and it has the font FixedSys Regular font.But isn't working. So I've installed Flowcode 8 in my laptop and its working fine here.
Thanks Benj
