The arms of the "Y" reach all the way to the top, but this is impossible considering the "M" displays for us that those are actually split between two different segments.

One of the "M" characters is written like lowercase, so it would actually need two adjacent displays to work, ruining the "one cell per character" rule.

I imagine most people will be using this for displaying times, and countdowns (my original purpose), so I imagined two LCD dots like on every alarm clock I"ve ever seen.

Fitting in a breve is not possible given the imaginary structure of the extra segments added for accent marks and cutting the tilde in half would look very off center, not to mention I intended for the tilde to be one continuous segment.

14seg-gen.sfd : this file is used as the base for generating OTF, TTF, et cetera. It is not suitable as a source because it has had Element -> Remove Overlap applied to it for a smaller filesizes and better behavior when skewed, however all my individual segments are lost so it"s harder to edit. This file creates otf/LCD.otf.

14seg-condensed.sfd - I take 14seg-gen.sfd and apply "Element -> Transformations -> Transform...", "Origin: Glyph Origin", "Scale..." X 50%. This file creates otf/LCDCondensed.otf.

14seg-italiccondensed.sfd - I take 14seg-condensed.sfd and apply "Element -> Transformations -> Transform...", "Origin: Glyph Origin", "Skew", Clockwise 12.5 degrees. This file creates LCDItalicCondensed.otf.

14seg-italic.sfd - I take 14seg-gen.sfd and apply "Element -> Transformations -> Transform...", "Origin: Glyph Origin", "Skew", Clockwise 12.5 degrees. This file creates otf/LCDItalic.otf.

A fourteen-segment display (FSD) (sometimes referred to as a starburst display or Union Jack displayseven-segment display, having an additional four diagonal and two vertical segments with the middle horizontal segment broken in half. A seven-segment display suffices for numerals and certain letters, but unambiguously rendering the ISO basic Latin alphabet requires more detail.sixteen-segment display which allows additional legibility in displaying letters or other symbols.

A decimal point or comma may be present as an additional segment, or pair of segments; the comma (used for triple-digit groupings or as a decimal separator in many regions) is commonly formed by combining the decimal point with a closely "attached" leftwards-descending arc-shaped segment.

Electronic alphanumeric displays may use LEDs, LCDs, or vacuum fluorescent display devices. The LED variant is typically manufactured in single or dual character packages, allowing the system designer to choose the number of characters suiting the application.

A 14-segment display is mostly used to display text because the 14 elements allow all Latin letters to be displayed both in upper case and lower case (with a few exceptions like "s").

Multiple-segment display devices use fewer elements than a full dot-matrix display, and may produce a better character appearance where the segments are shaped appropriately. This can reduce power consumption and the number of driver components.

Fourteen-segment gas-plasma displays were used in pinball machines from 1986 through 1991 with an additional comma and period part making for a total of 16 segments.

Fourteen and sixteen-segment displays were used to produce alphanumeric characters on calculators and other embedded systems. Applications today include displays fitted to telephone Caller ID units, gymnasium equipment, VCRs, car stereos, microwave ovens, slot machines, and DVD players.

Such displays were very common on pinball machines for displaying the score and other information, before the widespread use of dot-matrix display panels.

Multiple segment alphanumeric displays are nearly as old as the use of electricity. A 1908 textbook commutator assembly could be arranged so that as the drum was rotated, different sets of switches were closed and different letters and figures could be displayed. The scheme would have been used for "talking" signs to spell out messages, but a complete set of commutator switches, drums and lamps would have been required for each letter of a message, making the resulting sign quite expensive.

A few different versions of the fourteen segment display exist as cold-cathode neon lamps. For example, one type made by Burroughs Corporation was called "Panaplex". Instead of using a filament as the incandescent versions do, these use a cathode charged to a 180 V potential which causes the electrified segment to glow a bright orange color.Nixie tubes but instead of the full-formed numeric shapes, used segments to make up numerals and letters.
