This script uses a set of images, in this case nixie tube numeric characters, to create a virtual display. The main feature of this method is that you can make a display out of any set of images that represent your digit characters. For example, an LCD, an LED, the train station "flip" displays, etc. Right now it is numeric only. You must use AutoHotKey_L.
Put the file in its own folder as it will unpack a set of images that mimic a nixie tube display. The demo gives you a clock and an xy mouse position. ESCAPE kills the demo.

Re: nixie: proof of concept using images to simulate a displ
Looks good.
Found the following:
Found the following:
- I get an error that Hex2Dec() and Dec2Hex() are not included
- looks like GDIP is required
- 1GuiClose: - never triggers
- perhaps disable DPIScale for internal gui windows as it leaves empty spaces between the digits on higher DPI settings
Re: nixie: proof of concept using images to simulate a displ
Thanks for the input. Yes, Gdip is needed. Sorry about the two missing functions.
Can you say more about DpiScale? I'm not familiar with that.
Attached are the missing functions and a .jpg of other font "images" I've been using (they look much better than what you see in this screen grab).
