The ESP8266 has the LittleFS Flash filing system which is significantly faster than SPIFFS. New Smooth Font examples have been added that use LittleFS.
New function added:
bool created(void);
to check if sprite has been rotated. Example:
if ( !spr.created() ) Serial.println("Sprite has not been created");
Added 24 bit colour handling alphaBlend to reduce precision loss in multiple blend stages (e.g. in 2D colour gradients). Added option for alpha dither to reduce colour banding in gradients with 16 bit colours.
Get rid of compile warnings.
Callback allows anitaliased fonts to be rendered over colour gradients
or images.
"Smooth_font_reading_TFT" example added
"Smooth_font_gradient" example added
Minor changes to avoid signed/unsigned comparison warnings.
Added SD card storage for smooth fonts with ESP32
ESP32 will use PSRAM (if available and enabled) to hold smooth font
metrics
Improve performance of ESP32 Sprite shared functions
Add basic ST7789 driver option
Latent bug fixes for pin mask
Four new examples have been added to show different methods of rendering
the anta-aliased fonts. A few minor bugs have been corrected associated
with the font rendering. drawNumber and drawFloat handle fixed width
mono fonts with no digit movement.
