Hi,
I 've been using MiniDisplay with iMon and I am quite pleased the way it works. I only have one problem. If I configure MiniDisplay to use text mode (using iMon embedded fonts) I get two lines of text on the display, so that on the first line I can see screen/dialog title and on the second the currently selected buton/option. This works great for basic navigation in MP with the TV off. However in this mode iMon can only display english characters (plus some latin based international characters) but not Greek which is beyond the latin character set - this is no surprise. If on the other hand I use graphics mode (I believe the option is "Force graphics mode") it can display any language because it uses TruType fonts, but I haven't managed to get it to fit two lines of readable text. Only way is to set the font size to below 6pt which makes text illegible. I believe the problem is the line spacing.
Is there a way to make this work (e.g. is there a font with less line spacing so that it can fit 2 lines of, say, 8pt text in the 96x16 pixel display)? Alternatively, is there a way to change the line spacing?
Thanks,
Arion
