Document PNG to LED mapping. See #38

Gadgetoid opened this issue · comments

The blog post linked in #38 makes a good point that our documentation lacks any explanation for how the pixels in PNG animations map to the LEDs on the keybow. We should fix this.

Hey I took a shot at trying to improve the documentation for the PNG to LED mapping in this blog post

Is there a place for the documentation?

I created these images to help understand the mapping

Undocumented features are such a drag and while I really appreciate folks willing to take the time and energy to explore this, I'd be even more grateful for complete documentation from the OEM. I don't think it's enough to assume the "community" will help fill in the blanks.

Even if @b099l3 really did a magnificent job of it, I would have struggled to determine how this worked had I not randomly found his blog. The key mapping he made there alone is pure gold.
