# LEDEffect-BootAnimation With this plugin enabled, the keyboard will play a little boot animation when starting up (this animation does not inhibit typing, you can still use the keyboard while the animation plays). ## Using the plugin To use the plugin, include the header, and tell `Kaleidoscope` to use the plugin: ```c++ #include <Kaleidoscope.h> #include <Kaleidoscope-LEDControl.h> #include <Kaleidoscope-LEDEffect-BootAnimation.h> KALEIDOSCOPE_INIT_PLUGINS(LEDControl, BootAnimationEffect LEDOff); void setup() { Kaleidoscope.setup(); } ``` ## Plugin properties The plugin provides the `BootAnimationEffect` object, with the following properties: ### `.timeout` > This property specifies the timeout (in milliseconds) each step of the > animation is displayed. > > Defaults to `1000` ms, or one second. ### `.color` > This property sets the color the animation is played with. > > The default is a red color. ## Dependencies * [Kaleidoscope-LEDControl](Kaleidoscope-LEDControl.md)
