About the touch panel function in Bitmap2LCD

Bitmap2LCD is a tool for programming small Graphic LCDs in embedded systems.

Touch panel regions (green arrow) can be graphically defined in the work canvas.

  • Create a Touch panel script (orange arrow)

The editor gutter becomes green = Touch Panel Script.
