      I have an RGB controller for LED strips that supports fixed patterns in addition to a user selectable colour. I would like to modify this to use with a MyController / MySensor setup.

      Is it possible to create a widget that can send RGB data from the color picker and custom values from buttons to select the mode of operation (off / fade / blend / RGB)? I can make the sketch support any message type but I cannot see how to create the widget.

        With sensor variable widget you can add custom color picker.

        for custom buttons follow this blog: http://forum.mycontroller.org/topic/20/widget-sensor-custom-buttons

          Thanks for that, I was trying to use that but cannot work out how to add the colorpicker in the JSON structure for the buttons. I can see it is an AngularJS component but I don't know where to go from there.

          Thanks
          Chris

            for operations like, off / fade / blend / RGB go with custom buttons.

            for color picker use sensor variable widget.

              Did you get this to work?

                @skywatch I did get it to work as 2 individual controls however I haven't touched that project since August. From memory, the tutorial on custom buttons was detailed enough to make that control widget.
