Device layouts wishlist
RobertBeekman opened this issue · comments
With the wide range of supported devices, several limitations have come to light.
Most of these are related to changing device layouts at runtime. I think a general approach where devices and their LEDs are completely mutable would be ideal.
Just a few things I've seen pop up over time
- Removing devices after they've been registered
- Replacing the entire layout of a device
- Maybe take a good look at how paths are resolved while you're at it. I think a configurable LayoutLoader would be nice
- Then you can set things like the root dir, relatative layout and image dirs or even absolute dirs for everything
- The loader could also be a good place to give feedback on why layouts weren't loaded
- Changing the shape, size and position of induvidual LEDs
