# TMK Generic
* I'm not sure what the Magic + H does.
Is this a menu that will pop up regardless of what platform and program is open?
Yes, this is sort of debugging.
Use PJRC's [hid_listen](https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/hid_listen.html) to see debug messages.
# TMK/Ergodox specific
* I would like to configure my leds to indicate the active layer.
I read that can be done, but I haven't seen an example for this firmware.
Can someone please post an example or a link?
TMK for Ergodox have support for seven (!) led's:
- three on right
- three on left (see http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=22780.msg873819#msg873819 for more details)
- Teensy onboard led as well
Any of these leds can be used as layer indicator or NumLock/CapsLock/ScrollLock led.
[Here is example](https://github.com/cub-uanic/tmk_keyboard/blob/cub_layout/keyboard/ergodox/matrix.c#L121-167)
how you can assign some meaning to each led.
In this code only left leds are used to show layers, but you can
[change `led_set()`](https://github.com/cub-uanic/tmk_keyboard/blob/cub_layout/keyboard/ergodox/led.c)
and do anything you want with all leds.

# Things TO-DO
- [ ] Flash NumLock led only when "numpad" layer is active
- [ ] Command (in terms of IS_COMMAND) to switch to no-leds mode
- [ ] Increase count of ACTION keys
- [ ] Fix command_state() onboard led: it should flash only when kbd in some specific mode (CONSOLE || MOUSE)
- [ ] ergodox_blink_all_leds() should save current state of leds, and restore after blink. initial state of all leds == off
- [ ] add support for pseudo-backlight (reversed LEDs) + docs/photo
- [ ] command to debug all LEDs (on/off/blink)
- [ ] proper (in-core) implementation of DEBUG_MATRIX_SCAN_RATE (non-Ergodox specific)
- [ ] proper (in-core) support for per-layer fn_actions[]
2015-01-04 05:42:29 +02:00
- [ ] create one-handed layouts, see
