Feature Request: Change color on layer change #15

Open mattbruman opened 4 years ago

mattbruman commented 4 years ago

Be able to specify a few colors to cycle through on layer change, could make time lapse videos interesting.

I might have to think about this one for a while. The requirement is fairly niche and might require almost infinite customisations, so I'm not likely to put it towards to top of the list.

Its possible that this could be achieved in conjunction with the GCODE integration requested in other Issues, but injecting a colour update after each increment z gcode call.

Easier solution, allow for the color loop to be triggered as a color choice. Found this bit for the api, not sure if it would help

Content Type: application/json Message Body: {“effect”:“colorloop”} Starts the Color Loop and {“effect”:“none”} Stops the Color Loop
