Lambda unit symbol change

Hi, just a small request. Would it be possible to change the lambda unit to λ when setting up a bar gauge.

Thanks

You can simply add your own texture or icon with lambda sing and use it as unit.

Example project attached.
lambdaSign.adu (7.1 KB)

Having issues getting this icon from your project into mine.
Can you explain how I can save your icon so I can open it in my project as a .png

Also I see no way of matching the orange fill colour like the rest of the units? Why is ‘lambda’ not displayed as λ like all the other units % and bar as an example.

Thanks

To save the icon as a .png, simply unzip the lambdaSign.adu project file, and you’ll find the texture there.

Regarding the orange fill color: you’ll need to modify the texture in external software (e.g., Paint or similar) and re-add it to your project.

I’ve attached a project with a modified color and the raw texture for you to use and resize as needed:
lamndaSignOrange.adu (8.7 KB)

Keep in mind, the small lambda character/symbol isn’t part of standard ASCII or extended ASCII codes, so it can’t be natively displayed by ADU display. It must be handled using textures or icons.

Thanks for the help. :slightly_smiling_face:
