An alternative to the 7-segment display in the 1950s through the 1970s was the cold-cathode, neon-lamp-like nixie tube. Starting in 1970, RCA sold a display device known as the Numitron that used incandescent filaments arranged into a seven-segment display.

Three options, from easiest to hardest.: • By far the easiest option is to display your numbers with a 7 segment font. On my Windows 8 laptop, there is such a font called Quartz MS Regular (QuartzMS.TTF).

I don't know where it came from, but MS identifies it as Microsoft and it must have been preloaded on the system or packaged with a Microsoft product. If you don't have the Quartz font, search for another font on the Internet. This describes how to use custom fonts on Windows Phone: • Create 10 image files representing the digits 0-9 and display one of them for each digit in your number. • Actually draw the individual segments that make up each digit.

Similarly, you can generate a JavaScript frontend for a RESTful web service, so that databases can be exposed easily in HTML5 application. The 'Entity Classes from Database' wizard and the 'RESTful Web Services from Database' wizard can quickly generate complex applications from databases registered in the IDE. Netbeans ide java.

Neckerz 12-Apr-16 0:11 12-Apr-16 0:11 Thank you for the great custom control. That's what I was looking for. I found only one issue with the decimal point in the SevenSegmentArray control, but I've successfully corrected by myself. The issue occurs when trying to convert to string a float number with different decimal separator (in my project comma instead of dot).

In this scenario, the sevensegmentarray will not show the 'dot' on the display but an empty space instead. Ask me if you want the single line of code I replaced to make it decimal separator independent. Roj 16-Mar-13 15:46 16-Mar-13 15:46 This is a great control and I managed to get it working okay. Only thing I did not like is it was not a separate project by itself so you could use the dll in the toolbox so I created one. I did have to modify the width slightly as when I used the dll it cut off the right side.

Still, it works great and all I have to do is put it in my toolbox as a custom control. I initially tried to create a clock control, but I used images of a LED that I modified. It was a lot of working modifying the images in Paint.NET though and if I want a different color I have to create an entire set of images of that color.

Though this does not quite look as nice, it is much easier to use and implement. I was trying to draw my own digits, but that did not go so well and looked quite horrible. So, I am glad I found this control, great job. I have noticed a couple people asking for a colon. I am not really sure that is needed. If you want a clock display, I would think you could just make your own custom clock control and add the colon at that time. Just a thought.

Aspify 7-Jan-11 20:59 7-Jan-11 20:59 I am about to create a 8085 sim from a schematic I did back in college and decided to do it in C# and as I was creating the processor and I thought about the display, which was 6- 7 segment LEDs so I thought I'd take a look. This is cool cause I would like to use this control but I need to see if I can some how configure it for what I'm trying to do. But I have to say this is really cool. Fire me an email if you'd like.I somewhat new to C# and trying to transpose C to C#.I don't like to re-invent the wheel when at all possible. Here is my email aspify@yahoo.com but anyway great job I like it and I need to mess with it to see if I can use it.
