Hi all!
Have a few items that I would like included in CHDK:
1. A change to cls() command which clears only the current text window and doesn't cause the entire screen to flicker. Currently the only work-aroung I use is to print a number of blank line to avoid then flicker.
2. A way to change the grid pattern from with a script so that each script can have a unique style.
3. A way to determine when the camera has completed saving a video to the SD card. Currently, I have to add a long wait (sleep) to prevent the script from jumping over the following instructions. This is particularly troublesome when using video and MD in a script.
4. A way to zoom under script control without having to be in manual focus mode. At present I have been unable to have the camera zoom and refocus under script control. 'release "MF"' is flakey. Sometimes it will work after sleep(2000) and sometimes not.
5. A way to change text color for warning messages.
Question! Is there a way to put images on the camera's screen using the poke command? Anyone found the memory addresses for this or are they camera specific?
Cameras I use are S2IS and S5IS.
Problems described above are for all builds from the very first to the current 766 build.
