Events

KnobValueChangeEvent : { Value number, Type string }

Triggered when the knob is moved.
* Value is the respective value given by the knob's position
* Type is "KnobValueChangeEvent"

Examples

A simple code using some math to map knob's value into the hue of a LED's color:

-- a function that maps "value"
-- from a scale of "src_from" to "src_to"
-- into a scale of "tgt_from" to "tgt_to"
function map(value, src_from, src_to, tgt_from, tgt_to)
	return ((value - src_from) / (src_to - src_from) * (tgt_to - tgt_from)) + tgt_from
end

-- turn LED on at startup
gdt.Led0.State = true

function update()
	-- map slider -100,100 to hue 0,360
	local hue = map(gdt.Knob0.Value, -100, 100, 0, 360)
	
	-- set LED color to hue
	gdt.Led0.Color = ColorHSV(hue, 100, 100)
end
