Hello Again
Here is a seven segment digital display module made of 36 canvases (could have been 22 in hindsight) inspired by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven-segment_display
I've also attached some usage ideas.
Its a one size, one colour, no decimal point, no minus sign, so no negative numbers, but its cheap.
Interestingly I've produced one way of creating a readable number greater than 999999.
Anyway I reckon i need to get a life, because I find it comforting, old and reassuring to look at

@Balwyn Wow this is really cool. Must have been painstaking to create!

Thanks for your comments rjp9 and lzr.
It was easier than I thought it would be and it could have been easier if I had realised the segments should have been constructed from 3 canvases instead of 5.
Cheers
