Decimal points on 1.2" 7-segment clock displays (ID 1264, 12

The description text says "there are decimal points on each digit" but darned if I can see them in the pictures or on the datasheets!

Drat, I was hoping for decimal points. But I have another question as well. Are they end-stackable, i.e. will the spacing between the leftmost colon on one display and the rightmost digit on the next be the same as the colon in the middle of the display? From the picture it looks like there might be more space.

Code: Select all

I'd hope for
: 8 8 : 8 8 : 8 8 : 8 8

But it looks like it might end up more like this
: 8 8 : 8 8  : 8 8 : 8 8
            ^
            more space here

I don't have my calipers handy to measure it precisely, but there is more space to the left of the colon if you place them end-to-end.
