New design layout

[rimai]

Hi Guys,

I'm changing the design layout of the default main screen and would like to hear comments before I release it.
It only fits on the RA+ board though.
Here is what you need to do:
Update your libraries with the current dev branch of our libraries: https://github.com/reefangel/Libraries/archive/dev.zip
Update the features.txt with the attached file. It is located at \Documents\Arduino\update
Add this to your setup() section:

Code: Select all

  ReefAngel.Use2014Screen();

Make sure you don't have any custom main screen code, so you need have to delete the functions DrawCustomGraph and DrawCustomMain.
Let me know your thoughts
If you have any ideas to improve the layout, please speak up!!!

can we see a screen shot of what it'll look like?

[lnevo]

Yes, please

Does the latest dev branch have calibration for the multi-port water level expansion yet?

[rimai]

Let me see what I can do about the photos.
Yes, it does have the calibration.

Looking forward to pics.

Where is the attached file?

[rimai]

Which file?
I didn't have time to take the photos yet.

[rimai]

Ahh... forgot to attach it
It's in there now.

[ganjero]

Thanks for adding the file.

I will try it and provide feedback. To change the library I just need to replace the folders in \Documents\Ardunio\libraries with the ones in the zip file, correct?

Thank you Roberto.

[rimai]

correct

[ganjero]

I just installed this.
Feedback so far:
- I found that there is some error displaying my T1.
- Whats is the normal mode screen?

Screenshots (sorry for the low quality cell pics)

[rimai]

I guess I need a better sentence
That screen only has 1 option to display, which is lights on mode.
If it is not lights on mode, it will display "Normal mode"
Should I name something else?

[lnevo]

Looks great! Gonna mess with my custom screens for sure though...

How are we gonna hook into that?

[ganjero]

Could the DCPump screen be "live" and show the speeds go up and down?

[rimai]

You can see that in the AP/DP signals.

[rimai]

I guess we could have a new screen dedicated for AP/DP with bars too.
In fact, I think that's what I'll do.

[rimai]

I can't seem to be able to replicate your T1 problem though

Awesome

Maybe something in my code? Other screen show fine so I dont think is the screen

[rimai]

Found it
Thanks for letting me know!!
I'll fix it on next revision.

[rimai]

Ok, I updated the dev branch with the dimming channels in a separate screen.

[ganjero]

Roberto,

I will try it when I get home. Is there a way to chart the AP/DP? I would like to see how the wave patterns are behaving through the day.

Thanks

[lnevo]

Custom screens...hows that gonna work???

The controller only sends data every 5 minutes though

[rimai]

Doesn't change a thing.
Just like custom screens bypass the original one, it will bypass this one too.

[rimai]

Also, if you don't add ReefAngel.Use2014Screen(); the new screen is not enabled anyway.

[lnevo]

Is there a way to tap into the new screen though and add stuff? Maybe like a DrawCustomGraph() ?

Would love to get all the new stuff but keep some functionality...

Or can I do my own DrawCustomMain() and call a Draw function for the screens you've created?

[ganjero]

T1 display issue fixed and Dimming ports bars screen added.

Thanks Roberto

Did we get an answer to this i would love to alter the new screens! I love how they look but somethings are not named properly for my system!
