New changes affected WPS themes?

OK, I had an idea. And I think the current way must be keeped the way it is. Definitively, please. ;)

Is more easy to improve accuracy to the themes in their codes itself. So, I will can display a specific bitmap wherever I want.

I will just recode my WPS the following way:


VOLUME code will be divided in 65 degrees (-58dB ~ +6dB = 65 "degrees")

BATTERY code will be divided in 101 degrees (0% ~ 100% = 101 "degrees")


Of course, I'm not saying that I'll make one bitmap for each degree. I'll just keep the same bitmaps, repeating them on the codes. And wherever I want to change the bitmap, I can.

For example, in Volume code:

%?pv

(edit by NicolasP: I allowed myself to add a few spaces to make that line wrap)

%xdZ is exactly the 0dB position.

%xdY is exactly the +6dB position.


Just one important question for the developers:

The way I wrote the code will increase battery comsumption? I know that the bitmap will not change at every dB, but the code will send a command at each dB step, repeating the same bitmap.
 
So ? ? ? ?


 

NicolasP:
I think Llorean's idea could be quite simple to implement. I'll try to have a go at it.

EDIT: OK it's done: FS#7164.

Writing it that way shouldn't cause any more noticeable battery consumption, but it could cause problems with the maximum number of tokens in a complex WPS.

NicolasP:
I committed the patch implementing Llorean's request. Please tell me how you like it ! :)
