I'm working on creating a UI object for an 

 as I'm finding it much easier to create/slice/move what I want to draw to the LED matrix the device has in jitter and then downsampling to the pixel resolution (42 x 24) at the final step.

This works great for sending to the device (early 

 of what I'm working on) but I want something better for the UI I've set up.

I'm essentially just drawing it to a downsampled jit.pwindow like so:

But I'd like to somewhat mirror what you see on the device itself, which I crudely tried doing by creating a grid/mask as a vector image and then summing them, but it doesn't really line up right (or look good).

I had a look through the forum and examples and didn't see anything like this, but is it possible (without great difficulty...) to create a similar effect where each "pixel" of the 42x24 matrix becomes a masked off circle to create the visual effect of an LED matrix?

Hi, Rodrigo. My suggestion is jit gl. multiple. Does this help?

It helps me, Pedro! What a fun patch to play with. :-)

I've tweaked/adapted it some for my purposes:

The @scale settings required don't seem to make much sense to me, but this is perfect!

Oh, I just realized that I was adding a pointer thing using jit.lcd, which I can't (as far as I can tell) implement when working in this method.

I know there's jit.gl.handle, but I don't actually want to change or rotate the world at all, but rather draw a white circle/puck to indicate where my mouse is.

Nevermind, another jit.gl.gridshape and some scaling does the trick:

if I understood correctly what you need, you could also avoid 3d objects entirely and go with jit.gl.pix/jit.gen

Create a pixel/CRT effect?
