The `WavepoolEffect` plugin makes waves of light splash out from each keypress.
|
|
|
|
When idle, it will also simulate gentle rainfall on the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Using the plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use the plugin, one needs to include the header and select the effect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```c++
|
|
|
|
#include <Kaleidoscope.h>
|
|
|
|
#include <Kaleidoscope-LED-Wavepool.h>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
void setup (){
|
|
|
|
Kaleidoscope.use(&WavepoolEffect);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kaleidoscope.setup();
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WavepoolEffect.idle_timeout = 5000; // 5 seconds
|
|
|
|
WavepoolEffect.activate();
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to place the activation of the plugin (the `USE_PLUGINS` call)
|
|
|
|
as early as possible, so the plugin can catch all relevant key presses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Plugin methods
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The plugin provides the `WavepoolEffect` object, which has the following
|
|
|
|
properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `.idle_timeout`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> When to keys are being pressed, light will periodically splash across
|
|
|
|
> the keyboard. This value sets the delay in ms before that starts.
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
> To disable the idle animation entirely, set this to 0.
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
> Default is 5000 (5 seconds).
