just wondered why there hasn't been an update for CUE so long, and found the new, somhow independent version of CUE...
First thougts?
- In the lighting menu, when you hover the keys with your mouse, they light up yellow... Why isn't that also illuminated on the keyboard itself?
- The design got much better, but a bit more spacey.
- The functions are nearly the same, just redesigned - or at least I didn't recognized new ones yet.
Feature Suggestions:
- as said above - the mouse hovering illumination in CUE could be also on the keyboard itself
- CUE needs a "speeding down" function... Having a profile with MANY animations (probably imported from the RGB share) normally throws up an thunderstorm of colors having an option to make every single animation in a profile slower by X times (I usually increase 1 second to about 8 to 10 seconds to make a profile usable for me)
- List selections with Ctrl and Shift, as in Windows explorer: Selecting multiple animations using Ctrl+click or shift+click and then changing options for all of them at once
For example: Gradient 1-5 should start with a keypress, or should be sett to 15 seconds duration
- In the old version activating reactive lighting was possible even if there were advanced lighting effects configured - why isn't that in the new version?
- Animations while PC is locked - CUE runs in background if the PC is locked, so why isn't there the animations brought to the keyboard? I understand that CUE can't do animations while it isn't running
- Animations for the brightness and win-lock key - they seem to be wired the same way as normal keys and run seemingly through the same controller.
I'm currently having thoughts exactly about this... Either my Strafe RGB gets replaced with a modular keyboard where the MX switches can easily be switched or I'll purchase another keyboard with MX Blue to do typing and text work...
The MX silents seem to be great for gaming, but if I do long typing works I recognized the disadvantages of using the mx silents for that...
