Can some one please help me by explaining how to use the color argument in this function.......
Void drawBitmap(int8_t X, uint8_t y, const uint8_t *bitmap, uint16_t color)
The type def is
Uint16_t color.
I understand the rest but I cannot figure that out. Please I don't know what to put and I'm having problems because of it.
The parameters name is color, ist type is uint16_t. So, the Parameter accepts a value from 0 to 65535. That is 16 bits of color. When using 16 bits of color, usually R, G, and B are divided equally giving 3 * 5 = 15 bits and the additional bit is allocated to Green.
Refer to: High color - Wikipedia
Here's an app that will give you a color in 16bit.
Ok I think I'm starting to understand but how do transform the hex code to an integer that the function asks for?
just use the 0x notation and input the code in hex directly (eg, 0xa5).
Well yea, in the top of my sketch I do a
#define green 0x07E0
But I still have to put it in the right conversion. I did find an online app that will convert my hex to uint16_t color.
Would it be possible to do the #define for the colors in the library files? Like a pre-defined set of 16 colors?
To make up the 16 bit number you can use bit shifts, if you know the R G and B values you want
RGB = (G << 10) & (R << 5) & (B)
or whatever the order they have to be in. The RGB can be in any notation you like.

i take that as a yes!!! do I need to do an extern or will it automatically get it from the display file.
ok here is my real problem. I cannot get my bitmaps to compile. I transferred the fuctions from the gamebuino file and added the color arguments in both the .cpp and .h files but no matter how I try to put in the arguments in the sketch example they wont compile.

im still working on the sound stuff But maybe I forgot to add a definition or something to the source code?
All right guys can some one please help me figure out what I'm doing wrong with trying to simply display a bitmap.
I've tried everything and it's really getting frustrating. All I did was add the color arguments to the functions I've been using for months. I've tried colors letters hex integers what ever.
Seriously I've been trying for more than a couple and asking the whole time what I'm doing wrong. What is so secretive about using these commands? Do I need to join a club or buy the information I need. Adafruits doing the same thing. Answering the lil questions with out actually telling me how to solve the problem.
Not trying to be rude or trollish but I'm about ready to give up and that's a shame since I spent a month fixing the display files to work with the teensy. I can't even test my work properly since it needs the whole of the arguments in order to compile properly.
Please I'm begging for help!! Please!!!
