Abstract

A method for addressing a foil display, comprising applying (S2) voltages to all column electrodes to bring the entire foil into contact with the light guide, applying (S3) voltages to all row electrodes without bringing the foil out of contact with the light guide for each line of said display, providing (S4) a corresponding row electrode with a voltage increasing the electrostatic force towards the light guide, and applying (S5) to selected column electrodes a voltage that reduces the electrostatic force towards the passive plate, thereby bringing selected pixels along this line out of contact with said light guide and then activating (S6) the light source. According to the inventive method, the ON-state of a pixel is reached by switching the foil from an intermediate position, between the light guide and the passive plate, to the active plate.
