Night/Red Mode #1

Open edmk5000 opened 5 months ago

edmk5000 commented 5 months ago

Is a night mode that switches all colors to red and red shades difficult?

Maybe switched with a main screen button or in the config menu.

Unfortunately the colors are hard coded throughout the program with color-related constants such as DISPLAY_CYAN, DISPLAY_WHITE, etc. They were not defined with functional names such as BUTTON_FOREGROUND and BUTTON_BACKGROUND which would make it easier to make your change.

The DISPLAY_... colors are defined in nano_gui.h. If you want to make the change, I would suggest defining additional color constants based on function such as:

define BUTTON_FOREGROUND DISPLAY_RED

and

define BUTTON_BACKGROUND DISPLAY_MAROON

then going through the rest of the code and replacing the DISPLAY_CYAN or whatever with BUTTON_BACKGROUND, but this is something that I'm not interested in doing.

Thank you for offering programming advice.

I really like your program for it's speed, layout and functionality. I've run it for a year and enjoy working the v6 with it. Its a nice fit.

Regards, Ed
