Banner mode [suggestion from my kid!]
juliendorra opened this issue · 2 comments
One of my kids suggested that we could leave messages on the panel when I explained that the whole house has access to the control web page
As there's not enough resolution for a message board, a banner could be a way to pass messages.
It would also be a cool way to use our panels to display classical conceptual art pieces like the ones from Jenny Holzer 😃 ("PROTECT ME FROM WHAT I WANT")
There's https://github.com/MajicDesigns/MD_Parola but it is targeted as hardware controlling library
This much more basic project use 7 pixels by 5 characters (we should probably skip every other pixel vertically just like on the clock, considering the panel a 32x16 screen) https://projecthub.arduino.cc/OliB150/0988c46a-34ae-4d70-89a2-d38c4746bd6f
(I'm posting a few issues as much for everyone here than for me, to keep a list of the enhancements I'd like to try and implement)
Even so i would say a "Banner Plugin" where you just manually give a text in the web interface could be nice
