# 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:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
