Programming Mach3 screens

[Robin Hewitt]

I have one of those cheap digital microscopes, the one with the focus ring. It has a very positive clip mount which I could put on as a permanent attachment.

It will superimpose a 640x480 24 bit colour windows bitmap but I'm having trouble making the background transparent. Cross hairs aren't a lot of good if you can't make the background transparent

The image pops up in a seperate window which would work fine positioning with the pendant.

This is the date off a 5p coin taken from a safe distance...
