Btw the color effects are simple moire effects dependent on lcd quality. Here is a psychedelic experiment.  :)

But we need some feedback for the symbol mod.

All you need, is the symbol mod version from here. You can use now a new symbol font with 10pt (see at the attach). This font works with the build-in font of chdk. The greater symbol font size (16pt) is optimize for menu fonts with 16pt.

The picture shows the osd menu with build-in font and the symbol font 10pt.

imo the description has to be made better. yesterday i lost a lot of time trying to figure out how this actually works.
something like this:
you MUST have a font installed (not only the symbol font!)
you MUST have a language file (right?)
these two MUST be selected in the CHDK options.
after that, you can enable symbol mod and choose the symbol font (preferably same size as system font).
perhaps you should incorporate some checks like "if no custom font loaded, disable symbol mod".?

Wow,

I like what I see. ;) Though it doesn't make chdk really more newbie-friendly it does start to look like I could  use chdk, too. :p
BTW, ever considered to replace the
  • with a Checkmark-version?


Keep it up.
Hope I can give this a try soon

CU,
Mario
