MENWIZ: YET ANOTHER CHARACTER LCD MENU GENERATOR LIBRARY DESCRIPTION - (near) asynchronous: the library does not take mu control while working; this is usefull if your sketch need to work while you are using menus - simple to use (compact and simple code, ortogonal interface) - user defined splash screen (optional): if you need to show something at startup; time elapsed is user defined. - user defined callback screen (optional) activated after a user defined elapsed time since last button push. The menu gently leave the screen to the user sketch code, untill any button is pushed. - user-defined actions (callbacks) from inside the menu - user defined variables binding: associate (bind) a sketch variable to any menu object, whenever a value is changed inside the menus, the program has direct access to that value via its own (binded) variable - built in 6-buttons and 4-buttons modes; the user can overload the built-in mode, implementing its own navigation callback (e.g. analog buttons, rotary encoders etc) - EEPROM support to save and load variables to/from EEPROM non volatile mamory; it is possible to disable EEPROM support to spare some memory - use of F() operator to store menu strings in progmem to save the heap (starting from V 1.0). - menu objects behaviours - Quick tour user manual WHAT IS NEW IN THE LATEST VERSION Latest version: V 1.2.0 (December 26 2012): - Solved few bug occourring when a root menu is declared as collapsed menu in ver 1.1.0 . - It is now possible to disable button.h support in order to save space. - New behaviours added: MW_MENU_INDEX (applies to menwiz objects). - The getVer() function is now declared as #define pseudofunction, outside menwiz class. KNOWN LIMITATIONS AND BUGS t.b.d. BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY Please read the manual (chhaper "MENWIZ changes history") Warnings: - MENWIZ requires New LiquidCrystal (*) and Buttons libraries, enclosed with the package. The New LiquidCrystal allows to use 4 wires, 8 wires, I2C, serial and other LCDs. The use of New LiquidCrystal is beyond this introduction - the examples are done for 20x4 I2C LCD. other interfaces and screen dimensions can be used accordingly with New LiquidCrystal interface (changing mode/interface does not affect library code, but only sketch code) - starting from 0.6.0 version, due to the EEPROM support, the sketch must include the file EEPROM.h (until you disable the EEPROM support) The MENWIZ library is avalable at: https://github.com/brunialti/MENWIZ You can download all the stuff as ZIP file. Due to github policy it is not avalilable anymore the /downloads directory Please visit also the following forum topic: http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,99693.msg866553.html#new Comments, advices and user experiences are welcome VERSION NUMBER CONVENTION <version>.<subversion>.<build> <version>: 0=not officially released (check the latest available sources, the lib could work not properly <subversion>: new functions, modified function interfaces <build>: bug fixing, minor internal changes The TEST_LIB zip file contains all the library *required* to use MENWIZ lib. (*) New LiquidCrystal is a replacement of the standard LiquidCrystal and LiquidCrystal_I2C libraries. it is more efficient and very well supported The nice thing about the "New LiquidCrystal" library, is that it already supports a wide range of LCD controllers: - I2C base on the PCF8574 or compatible - 4bit and 8bit parallel - ShiftRegister: 3wire, 2wire, 1wire (beta) You can load the latest version at: https://bitbucket.org/fmalpartida/new-liquidcrystal/wiki/Home
