# Font styles
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_The implementation of on-the-fly font style switching is still work in progress. As for now, there's a variety of font styles that can be chosen prior to building the code._
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Credits to [inavosd](https://github.com/iNavFlight/inav-configurator/tree/master/resources/osd) for providing the basis to develop on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Available font styles are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**clarity (default)** a clearly visible large font:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**clarity_medium** good visibility, less dominant than clarity default:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**bfstyle** bf- / inav-osd default style:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**bold** a bolder version of bfstyle:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**digital** 80's clock radio style:
|
||

## Individualizing charsets ##
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Charsets can be edited or built form scratch using [MAX7456charwizard](https://github.com/diydrones/MinimOSD-Extra/blob/master/Tools/MAX7456Charwizard.jar)

## Building a firmware with a non-default font style
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_On-the-fly style switching being still-work-in progress, as for now it is required to convert the desired .mcm file to a file named clarity.bin that is automatically integrated into the build._
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In your cloned repository navigate to this directory:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
/ardupilot/libraries/AP_OSD/fonts
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
and call "mcm2bin.py input.mcm output.bin" to convert your chosen .mcm file:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
./mcm2bin.py yourfont.mcm clarity.bin
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
Now navigate back to the directory root, configure and build for your desired board.
