# Bitmap_Examples
A predefined repository of bitmap examples for a 128x64 pixel display using the ESP8266 with the SSD1306 module.
### Make use of this [link](https://lastminuteengineers.com/oled-display-esp8266-tutorial/#esp8266-example-code-3-dispaying-bitmap) for your code base or copy this
```c
#include
#include
#include
#include
#define SCREEN_WIDTH 128 // OLED display width, in pixels
#define SCREEN_HEIGHT 64 // OLED display height, in pixels
// Declaration for SSD1306 display connected using I2C
#define OLED_RESET -1 // Reset pin
#define SCREEN_ADDRESS 0x3C
Adafruit_SSD1306 display(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, &Wire, OLED_RESET);
...
//bitmap code here
...
const int epd_bitmap_allArray_LEN = 1;
const unsigned char* epd_bitmap_allArray[1] = {
<>
};
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
// initialize the OLED object
if (!display.begin(SSD1306_SWITCHCAPVCC, SCREEN_ADDRESS)) {
Serial.println(F("SSD1306 allocation failed"));
for (;;)
;
}
// Clear the buffer.
display.clearDisplay();
display.drawBitmap(32, 0, <> , 64, 64, WHITE);
display.display();
// Invert Display
//display.invertDisplay(1);
}
void loop() {
}
```
here module name can be find from `copy from` directed folder.
Example: image2.ino
```arduino
const unsigned char epd_bitmap_image2 [] PROGMEM = {
0xff, 0xff, 0xff,
.....
.....
}
```
`epd_bitmap_image2` is the module name so copy it and append it in ``<> ``, one right below bitmap code(that .ino file you copied) and another on second line of `Clear the buffer` comment.
