mixing libraries

[plito]

I´ve tried to mix some functions between DMD and DMD2 libraries without success. I want to add drawMarquee and stepMarquee from DMD to the DMD2 because they are very useful to scroll text and draws. Is there any way to do this ? I don´t have enough knowledge to do it and I need it.
I appreciate somebody help me.
Thank you . Sorry for my english.

plito,
You cannot simply combine the DMD and DMD2 libraries.
There are similar facilities in the DMD2 library: dmd.marqueeScrollX() & dmd.marqueeScrollY().
Have a look at the DMD2 examples available under the 'File' menu. There is one called 'Marquee' that should help you. If it is not there, you might have an old version of the library. I think the latest official release is this one.

Brissieboy. I´m already using DMD2 library. The instructions marqueeScrollX and marqueeScrollY are too slow with more than 2 panels. This is the reason because I´d tried with DMD, but on this one I can´t set the brightness or using variables in drawString. Both libraries have advantages and disadvantages. I thought that a mixing between both libraries was possible, but I couldn´t do it work. Thank you anyway.

plinto,
The DMD can have brightness control. Have a read of this topic. And it's a simple matter to convert your variables to a string (just Google it if you need to) so you can use drawString.

Thank you Brissieboy. You are almost a genius.
