   1 # TFT/OLED Graphics Sub-System
   2
   3 The LPC1343 Code Base includes a reasonably complete graphic
   4 sub-system that can be used with a variety of RGB565 TFT or OLED
   5 displays.
   6
   7 It includes all the basic drawing primitives you'd expect, as well
   8 as color conversion and alpha-blending, support for bitmap and
   9 anti-aliased fonts, loading and saving of bitmap images (from/to an
  10 SD card or elsewhere), and a few basic controls to help you get
  11 started developing your own custom look and feel in your application.
  12
  13 The core drawing routines (/drivers/displays/tft/drawing.c) are
  14 seperated from the actual HW (/drivers/displays/tft/hw/*) so that
  15 the underlying display can be easily changed without having to
  16 significantly modify your project code.
  17
  18 A number of drivers are provided for common displays and controllers,
  19 and it's relatively straight-forward to extend the library to support
  20 new ones: you simply need to implement the set of functions defined
  21 in lcd.h, and the graphics sub-system will call these functions
  22 directly when rendering any text, graphics, etc..
