  • This is a segmented display concept I’ve been tinkering with for the past couple years, utilizing a concept I call a “fused middle segment”. This is essentially where the side segments are extended to make up parts of the middle, removing a whole LED (this brings the number down to 6). While it has no purpose as a font, I wanted to try it out here to polish some stuff.

    I should also address the fact that multiple characters are missing, or wierd looking. That’s because of the limitations of the display, it’s not possible to do them all without more segments (it can manage as many as the traditional 7 segment, though!). For future versions or styles, I probably won’t keep doing more than the normal digits, but I thought it would be useful to do them at least once.

    Anyway, thanks! I would love feedback, and I will make sure to include it in the next versions!

For the C and D, you can do "de" and "bcde" respectively (segments starting at the top going clockwise).

B can be "cdef" to reduce anbiguity with the digit 8 for hexadecimal.

@BWM Thanks so much for the help! Those are really great suggestions, and I implemented them. I also used some of the same strategies for a few other characters, so the alphabet is pretty much finished. I really appreciate the help!
