7 seg led grey segments not show in off state in white background mode

Opened this issue 2 months ago · 4 comments

it will be better to show a very light grey, like that dark red in black mode

I believe I tried this and it didn't look good. The dark red is realistic in black background mode but there's no such thing as a LED with a white background.

like this, a light grey color for the off segment

There are indeed real 7 segment displays with a white or light gray background, e.g. http://betlux.com/led/0.80-inch-four-seven-segment-led-display-BL-Q80A-41,BL-Q80B-41.htmThis change would drastically improve readability.Am 11.08.2024 um 06:25 schrieb Paul Falstad ***@***.***>: I believe I tried this and it didn't look good.

Well, ok but those are white LED's... But I could try again making a very light gray color for the off segments.
