Can anyone tell how manyOkay, let's count pixels here. The text "QUEENS BLVD LOCAL" is positioned at the exact left edge of the display, and has two blank columns to the right of the final L. Q: 7 U: 6 E: 5 N: 7 S: 6 [Space]: 3 B: 6 L: 5 V: 7 D: 6 O: 6 C: 6 A: 6 So, "QUEENS BLVD LOCAL", taking into account one blank column of pixels after each character is… 7+1+6+1+5+1+5+1+7+1+6+1+3+1+6+1+5+1+7+1+6+1+3+1+5+1+6+1+6+1+6+1+5 = 110 Q U E E N S _ B L V D _ L O C A L Add the two columns to the right of the final L, and you get a total of 112. That's the maximum pixel width the message can have without scrolling. Let's add some other characters into the mix: X: 7 P: 6 R: 6 W: 7 Y: 6 I: 2 4: 7 /: 6 2: 6 1: 4 -: 6 T: 6 G: 6 The string "QUEENS BLVD EXPRESS" would be… 7+1+6+1+5+1+5+1+7+1+6+1+3+1+6+1+5+1+7+1+6+1+3+1+5+1+7+1+6+1+6+1+5+1+6+1+6 = 125 Q U E E N S _ B L V D _ E X P R E S S Let's consider other strings and their pixel widths: 21 ST-QUEENSBRIDGE: 115 BROADWAY/4 AV EXP: 114 BROADWAY EXPRESS: 111 Any others? |
