Hidden config options
This section describes any settings that can be placed in the config.ini file but don't (yet) appear in the user's interface.
- In the [General Settings] section:
- MinFadeContrast: This setting defines the lowest point of the contrast when using the contrast fade screen interaction. Many LCD screen go blank long before reaching 0 contrast - so contrast fade may appear to be doing nothing for a long period of time. If you set this to your LCD's lowest visible contrast then the contrast fade interaction will greatly improve.
- LCDType can be set to 5 to use the Test Driver - other values can be set via the UI but not 5.
- In the [Test Driver] section:
- These settings are described on the Test Driver page.
