LED (lv_led)

Overview

The LEDs are rectangle-like (or circle) object whose brightness can be adjusted. With lower brightness the colors of the LED become darker.

Parts and Styles

The LEDs have only one main part, called LV_LED_PART_MAIN and it uses all the typical background style properties.

Usage

Color

You can set the color of the LED with lv_led_set_color(led, lv_color_hex(0xff0080)). This will be used as background color, border color, and shadow color.

Brightness

You can set their brightness with lv_led_set_bright(led, bright). The brightness should be between 0 (darkest) and 255 (lightest).

Toggle

Use lv_led_on(led) and lv_led_off(led) to set the brightness to a predefined ON or OFF value. The lv_led_toggle(led) toggles between the ON and OFF state.

Events

No special event are sent by the LED object.

LED with custom style

#include "../../lv_examples.h"
#if LV_USE_LED && LV_BUILD_EXAMPLES

/**

 */
void lv_example_led_1(void)
{
    /*Create a LED and switch it OFF*/

    lv_obj_align(led1, LV_ALIGN_CENTER, -80, 0);
    lv_led_off(led1);

    /*Copy the previous LED and set a brightness*/
    lv_obj_t * led2  = lv_led_create(lv_scr_act());
    lv_obj_align(led2, LV_ALIGN_CENTER, 0, 0);
    lv_led_set_brightness(led2, 150);
    lv_led_set_color(led2, lv_palette_main(LV_PALETTE_RED));

    /*Copy the previous LED and switch it ON*/
    lv_obj_t * led3  = lv_led_create(lv_scr_act());
    lv_obj_align(led3, LV_ALIGN_CENTER, 80, 0);
    lv_led_on(led3);
