PowerPoint_to_sketch

Create an Arduino Sketch from a VB macro in a PowerPoint presentation.

This PowerPoint presentation and the included VB macro is based on the work by Kris Kasprzak here.

The original VB macro created by Kris is part of the presentation, it has been expanded and enhanced with extra capabilities.

The example presentation creates an Arduino sketch that renders on a 480x320 TFT screen. This uses the fonts provided in the TFT_eSPI_ext library by Frank Boesing. Frank's library can be downloaded here.

The first PowerPoint slide lists capabilities, this slide is not included in the generated sketch:

Here is slide 2 as created in PowerPoint example:

Slide 2 as drawn by the created sketch and drawn on a 480x320 pixel TFT:

Slide 6 shows how variables can be included in tables:

Slide 6 as drawn on TFT:

Rounded rectangles in the PowerPoint slide create clickable "buttons" on the TFT:

Slide 7 as drawn on TFT by created sketch:

Here is the sketch that has been generated from the presentation by the VB macro.
