Is that possible to adjust backlight color on per-model basis with current ErSky9x? If not, could it be added?
I suppose MikeB has the answer

You may assign a global variable for each of the three brightness values (hold MENU down for a LOOONG time to toggle to a GVAR).
Then set the three GVAR values to set the colour.

The only problem is that we lose those GVARs for other things as they become global
Would it be possible to implement the backlight on a per model basis?
Maybe in the voice alarm menu, or a sub menu of that one called backlight..
We could adjust the 3 RGB values, a switch, and probably an option to flash it.
Just an idea

How many GVARs do you use that you can't afford to allocate 1, 2 or 3 to the backlight operation?
Note that there are 7 GVARS, but only the first 5 may be used in many places, so 6 and 7 are possibly available for the backlight anyway.

Mike.

Ok, then perhaps would be nice to increase the number of GVARs as assigning them permanently to the backlight would leave only 4 for normal programming. In some cases that is not enough in my opinion..
Or maybe just implementing 3 more GVAR's specifically for the backlight..


The reason to have a specific backlight setting is that people see it in a menu and will actually use it.
Otherwise, using GVARs, no one will know that the feature is there, unless he/she read these posts.. And these posts will soon be hidden among thousands of other posts..
A manual is also inexistent at the moment..

Thanks

Thanks! That will do for now, set all my models to different colours
What else do you use GVARs for?
