Atreus Macros not working

soperhero · July 21, 2021, 6:25pm

When I update the keymap (to put new Macros on there) on my Atreus, it will stop the Macros from functioning at all unless I revert back in the Arduino Board Manager to version 1.99.1 - any higher versions (including latest, 1.99.3) stop Macros from working.

I’m using Chrysalis 0.8.4 to actually map the Macros, and Arduino 1.8.15 (not the Store version) to update the Keymap on Windows 10. The additional boards manager URL I’m using is here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/keyboardio/boardsmanager/master/package_keyboardio_index.json

I feel like I must have missed something, or that something somewhere needs to be updated, but I’m lost on what else to try! Any ideas?

Ohhhhhhhh… I’m wondering if I need to do this:

github.com

keyboardio/Kaleidoscope/blob/master/plugins/Kaleidoscope-Macros/UPGRADING.md

# Upgrading Macros code

This is a guide to upgrading existing Macros code to use the new version of
Kaleidoscope and the Macros plugin.

## New `macroAction()` function

There is a new version of the `macroAction()` function, which is the entry point
for user-defined Macros code. The old version takes two integer parameters, with
the following call signature:

```c++
const macro_t* macroAction(uint8_t macro_id, uint8_t key_state)
```

If your sketch has this function, with a `key_state` bitfield parameter, it
might still work as expected, but depending on the specifics of the code that
gets called from it, your macros might not work as expected. Either way, you
should update that function to the new version, which takes a `KeyEvent`
reference as its second parameter:

I’ll post back here if that does it.

I couldn’t do this because for some reason that new version of the Macros plugin looks like it’s not being found when I install the latest version using the Board manager (1.99.3).

When I try to update the macroAction method signature in my sketch I get:

error: 'KeyEvent' has not been declared
 const macro_t* macroAction(uint8_t macroIndex, KeyEvent &event) {
                                                ^~~~~~~~
exit status 1

…which makes me think that the plugin that’s being downloaded by the Board Manager isn’t the latest version? I am very confused, either way.

Grateful for any ideas, for now I’ve rolled back to 1.99.1 and am back working again.

That’s right. The Boards Manager version is not up to date with the current master branch of Kaleidoscope.
