Not much to report. I wired a bunch of harnesses up to the buttons. This will work better than the quick disconnects I had been using. While the connection between the disconnect and the button was okay, I was having problems with the wire falling out of the disconnect. No amount of crimping was helping, I think it's because the wire is simply too small.
Anyway, I got all the LED buttons and switches wired up. The only thing left are the 10 action buttons. Those I'll get to tomorrow. After that it's mostly a waiting game until the boards arrive.
In code news, I implemented some extra display options for the bargraphs. Most were simple variations on how the colors are selected, but I also implemented one which projects increases/decreases and marks those in a separate color. I'm particularly proud of this one. It's got a configurable projection duration as well, since I imagine I'll probably have to tweak that as I go.
While I did that, I also added code to the bargraphs and displays which check whether the display will change by comparing to the previously used values. This should cut down on unnecessary display updates.
