In The Dot Factory you can set the Comments -> Style to "C", then it will use /* */ style comments and you don't have to manually fix the generated fonts. I assume this is why the example fonts work correctly.

Ya, that works too.

So my original guess turned out to be correct?!

😮

What IDE & toolchain are you using? You should probably feed this back to them ...

What happens if you use /* ... */ comments instead ?

Thank you, that did it!

So the '\' in the comments was escaping the following entry!

Hmm, and do you see the same issue if you use the 8pt fonts? Could you try to remove the // \ comment after {11,2200} and see if that changes anything?

No I haven't compared but I'm using the same settings for both, just changing the initialisation of the fonts to the new ones. See below, I comment out the 8 pt referenc and use 10 pt instead.

//extern const nrf_gfx_font_desc_t orkney_8ptFontInfo;
//extern const FONT_INFO orkney_8ptFontInfo;               
//static const FONT_INFO * p_font = &orkney_8ptFontInfo;   

extern const nrf_gfx_font_desc_t orkney_10ptFontInfo;
extern const FONT_INFO orkney_10ptFontInfo;              
static const FONT_INFO * p_font = &orkney_10ptFontInfo;

Have you compared the compiler and linker settings in your project vs the examples in the SDK?

RE: const array missing element

No, I don't believe so. It works fine with the examples supplied in the SDK.

Is the '\' being seen as an escape ... ?
