[FR] Neopixel/RGB support on DGUS #231

Closed Ranney1 closed 3 years ago

Ranney1 commented 3 years ago

Sorry, had to ask...

Would be great to have neopixel support on the DGUS!

Options:

LED button can (also) turn Neopixel on/off
Special page on DGUS with color/brightness control
Errors (mismatch firmware) can control neopixel with red/yellow/blue state. (like events as implemented in Marlin).
Turn on/off 'follow system events'
Default brightness

Is this possible? A lot of work? Of course, if I'm the only one that is using neopixels than please remove this request!

Moving to Marlin.

Sounds like fun, first need to buy another neopixel for my CR-6 with stock touch screen 😉

Sebazzz commented 3 years ago

I got my neopixel installed now. Any suggestion where to place this in the menu @Ranney1? Also taking #121 into account of course.

Sebazzz commented 3 years ago

Alright. This is implemented using something we didn't use before: slider controls.

Hopefully @ztakis / @grobux have time to make something decent of it, instead of my dabbling in Paint.NET 😄

Implementation notes:

Added page 81 RGB
Added icon 30, 31, 32, 33, 34 which represent the slider knob itself for R, G, B, W, and brightness respectively.
Added navigation in the misc settings (until we're doing something serious with #121), and the extra tuning menu

@ztakis I made the RGB button into its own icon, so it only shows when applicable. You may want to update the PSD, but regeneration of the bitmaps is not needed 😉

This feature request has been fully implemented now.
