Per led rgb settings, layer rgb and other indicator rgb

99 votes

Per key RGB is one of the few things that is lacking in the UI in VIA and VIAL. This seems to be often requested in places like r/olkb where per key RGB seems to be one of the few things that still has to be done in code rather than ui.

Allow adjusting leds in the ui ...
per led
Per "type" of key (Alphanumerics, modifiers, function row, num pad , navigation etc)
dependent on layer
indicator for caps lock, scroll lock, numlock

This is very heavily dependent on the basic QMK part of the firmware actually having a full matrix definition of the RGB, not just a simple array for underglow etc. so even just implementing it in GUI wouldn’t help most people until they spend the time doing that for their keyboard.

Also, the memory needed for the matrix and the functions basically mean it’s a no-go from the start on Atmega32u4 and similar MCUs.
