# Kaleidoscope-LEDEffects
|
||||
|
||||
The `LEDEffects` plugin provides a selection of LED effects, each of them fairly
|
||||
simple, simple enough to not need a plugin of their own.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using the plugin
|
||||
|
||||
There are a number of different effects included in the package, all of them are
|
||||
available once including the header, and one's free to choose any number of
|
||||
them.
|
||||
|
||||
```c++
|
||||
#include <Kaleidoscope.h>
|
||||
#include <Kaleidoscope-LEDEffects.h>
|
||||
|
||||
KALEIDOSCOPE_INIT_PLUGINS(LEDControl, JukeBoxEffect);
|
||||
|
||||
void setup(void) {
|
||||
Kaleidoscope.setup();
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Included effects
|
||||
|
||||
All of these effects will scan the active layers, and apply effects based on
|
||||
what keys are active on each position, thus, it needs no hints or configuration
|
||||
to figure out our layout!
|
||||
|
||||
### `MiamiEffect`
|
||||
|
||||
Applies a color effect to the keyboard, inspired by the popular Miami keyset:
|
||||
|
||||
![Miami](extras/MiamiEffect.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Alphas, punctuation, numbers, the space bar, the numbers and the dot on the
|
||||
keypad, and half the function keys will be in a cyan-ish color, the rest in
|
||||
magenta.
|
||||
|
||||
### `JukeboxEffect`
|
||||
|
||||
Applies a color effect to the keyboard, inspired by the JukeBox keyset:
|
||||
|
||||
![Jukebox](extras/JukeboxEffect.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Alphas, punctuation, numbers, the space bar, the numbers and the dot on the
|
||||
keypad, and half the function keys will be in a beige-ish color, the rest in
|
||||
light green, except for the `Esc` key, which will be in red.
|
||||
|
||||
An alternative color scheme exists under the `JukeboxAlternateEffect` name,
|
||||
where the light green and red colors are swapped.
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugin methods
|
||||
|
||||
The plugin provides a single method on each of the included effect objects:
|
||||
|
||||
### `.activate()`
|
||||
|
||||
> When called, immediately activates the effect. Mostly useful in the `setup()`
|
||||
> method of the Sketch, or in macros that are meant to switch to the selected
|
||||
> effect, no matter where we are in the list.
