hi i have an idea instead of picture graphx im thinking of making art using just text. is there a way to put a letter in the middle with spaces like
" h " or another way to create text visuals. if ascii doesnt translate well i can use regular letters. thanks
text/assci
Re: text/assci
As far as I know doing a PRINT " h " will get to exactly that. You can use @ or AT or LOCATE to position it.
You can change fonts and its size. Currently you can't change the character spacing (tracking) but there is a ticket for that support in future.
On another front, you can load a set of bitmap graphics and work them out to be your font, that way you may do whatever you please with it.
On the Color Computer, one can POKE characters on the screen and those values can be declared or DATA.
Simon Johnansen did a text/semigraphics web editor that works as a text paint app and export the data to be used in BASIC.

I see. i tried an ascii copyright © but it doesnt show at least on c64, which uses petscii but then other computers dont have petscii. so i saw the link to the art but where is the semigraphic online editor? thank you!
