I would like to be able to easily add an LED control to Marlin as many printers now have LED's on the print head as well as my converted Anycubic Kobra Max. It would be a simple mod to the CASE LIGHT control or a separate menu item but is needed all the same.

You can set that right next to 2240 drivers on the way back shelf that will never see the light of day lol !

its just a mobile CASE_LIGHT so enable CASE_LIGHT_MENU

#

and there is always M42 on a custom menu item

It errors out every time not associated with Neopixels so it will have to be custom menu item. Would be nice if case light got fixed.

So M42 S1 and S0 I suppose.... ie on/off

CASE_LIGHT_MENU != LED_CONTROL_MENU

#

LED_CONTROL_MENU assumes RGB

So how do I go about using custon config menu addition. Not exactly sure where to put it. #define CUSTOM_USER_BUTTONS or #define CUSTOM_MENU_CONFIG ???? WOW ! this could not be more confusing if you guys tried. Absolutely nothing to go by as in ZERO information to configure this.

…

CUSTOM_USER_BUTTONS are user-defined buttons (physical buttons connected to pins) that will run custom G-code when a button is pressed.
CUSTOM_MENU_MAIN provides a simple way to add custom menu items that appear within the Main menu on supported displays.
CUSTOM_MENU_CONFIG provides a simple way to add custom menu items that appear within the Configuration sub-menu on supported displays.
