FingerPainter¶
The FingerPainter
plugin provides an elaborate LED
mode, in which one’s able
to paint with their fingers: when edit mode is toggled on, keys will - instead
of performing their normal function - cycle through the global palette - as
provided by the LED-Palette-Theme plugin -, one by one for each tap.
This allows us to edit the theme with the keyboard only, without any special software (except to toggle edit mode on and off).
