Customzing your PloopyCo Mouse
While the defaults are designed so that it can be plugged in and used right away, there are a number of things that you may want to change. Such as adding DPI control, or to use the ball to scroll while holding a button. To allow for this sort of control, there is a callback for both the scroll wheel and the mouse sensor.
The default behavior for this is:
void process_wheel_user(report_mouse_t* mouse_report, int16_t h, int16_t v) {
mouse_report->h = h;
mouse_report->v = v;
}
void process_mouse_user(report_mouse_t* mouse_report, int16_t x, int16_t y) {
mouse_report->x = x;
mouse_report->y = y;
}This should allow you to more heavily customize the behavior.
Alternatively, the process_wheel and
process_mouse functions can both be replaced too, to allow
for even more functionality.
Additionally, you can change the DPI/CPI or speed of the krackball by
calling pmw_set_cpi at any time. Additionally, there is a
DPI_CONFIG macro that will cycle through an array of
options for the DPI. This is set to 1200, 1600, and 2400, but can be
changed. 1600 is also set to the default.
To configure/set your own array, there are two defines to use,
PLOOPY_DPI_OPTIONS to set the array, and
PLOOPY_DPI_DEFAULT.
#define PLOOPY_DPI_OPTIONS { 1200, 1600, 2400 }
#define PLOOPY_DPI_DEFAULT 1The PLOOPY_DPI_OPTIONS array sets the values that you
want to be able to cycle through, and the order they are in. The
“default” define lets the firmware know which of these options is the
default and should be loaded by default.
The DPI_CONFIG macro will cycle through the values in
the array, each time you hit it. And it stores this value in persistent
memory, so it will load it the next time the device powers up.
