What's wrong?

The ROG Flow Z13 has a small window on the back, with RGB lights. G-Helper sees it as a "lightbar"... I would like to have it showing the same things as a keyboard if that is possible, for modes "Heatmap" and "Ambient" as for those 2 modes it shows the last mode it was before putting on 1 of these 2 modes. Thanks, loving the app...

How to reproduce the bug?

So if I was on strobe before clicking Ambient, keyboard switches to Ambient, while the back window continues strobing, or any other mode, static, rainbow etc...

@velikidizel hello,

I'm afraid that's not possible (or i'm simply not aware how to individually set color for back window). As both Ambient and Heatmap modes are software-emulated – i.e. G-Helper sets color manually every time it needs to change.

Are you able to change individual color only for this back window with apps like OpenRGB ?

either i have mega autism not knowing how to setup openrgb or something is broken. openrgb only recognizes a monitor i have never seen in my life, let alone was connected at some point, let alone connected right now. it also said when i opened that 1 or more rgb devices wont work because of some issue with windows not loading some drivers idk i forgot what it said and it stopped popping up. either way i cannot control anything with openrgb

@velikidizel then most likely it's not possible to individually set color for the back window in general. So nothing can be done here

okay, no problem... as this ambient mode is really cool and not standard in the armoury crate, thank you for atleast implementing for keyboard. i will close this issue now...
