# Kaleidoscope-MagicCombo
|
|
|
|
The `MagicCombo` extension provides a way to perform custom actions when a
|
|
particular set of keys are held down together. The functionality assigned to
|
|
these keys are not changed, and the custom action triggers as long as all keys
|
|
within the set are pressed. The order in which they were pressed do not matter.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to tie complex actions to key chords.
|
|
|
|
## Using the extension
|
|
|
|
To use the extension, we must include the header, create actions for the magic
|
|
combos we want to trigger, and set up a mapping:
|
|
|
|
```c++
|
|
#include <Kaleidoscope.h>
|
|
#include <Kaleidoscope-Macros.h>
|
|
#include <Kaleidoscope-MagicCombo.h>
|
|
|
|
enum { KIND_OF_MAGIC };
|
|
|
|
void kindOfMagic(uint8_t combo_index) {
|
|
Macros.type(PSTR("It's a kind of magic!"));
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
USE_MAGIC_COMBOS(
|
|
[KIND_OF_MAGIC] = {
|
|
.action = kindOfMagic,
|
|
.keys = {R3C6, R3C9} // Left Fn + Right Fn
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
KALEIDOSCOPE_INIT_PLUGINS(MagicCombo, Macros);
|
|
|
|
void setup() {
|
|
Kaleidoscope.setup();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to use the `RxCy` macros of the core firmware to set the keys
|
|
that are part of a combination.
|
|
|
|
## Plugin properties
|
|
|
|
The extension provides a `MagicCombo` singleton object, with the following
|
|
property:
|
|
|
|
### `.min_interval`
|
|
|
|
> Restrict the magic action to fire at most once every `min_interval`
|
|
> milliseconds.
|
|
>
|
|
> Defaults to 500.
|
|
|
|
## Plugin callbacks
|
|
|
|
Whenever a combination is found to be held, the plugin will trigger the
|
|
specified action, which is just a regular method with a single `uint8_t`
|
|
argument: the index of the magic combo. This function will be called repeatedly
|
|
(every `min_interval` milliseconds) while the combination is held.
