    Posted: 13 Nov 2012 at 4:12pm
I was wondering if it's possible to customize the colors on the backlight of the keyboard more than what is offered by the Hotkey menu (random, dancing, tempo, etc.). I have a x15E laptop and while I do like the ability to set the backlight to whatever color (or set of 3 colors) I want, I'd like to be able to do more. Does anyone know if there are any other programs out there that offer more customizability? Or maybe there's a library that I can use to develop my own application to set the keyboard backlight colors?

Does anyone know who makes Hotkey and the keyboard? If I knew more about the specifics of the keyboard and Hotkey it might make it easier to find a way to customize it more.

The x15E is based on the Clevo P150EM chassis, and I believe Clevo made the keyboard and the backlighting program as well.

I have actually looked this up a few times because the x17 and x15e use the same keyboard, and I haven't found any programs online that expand the backlighting.

Sorry that I don't really know anything aside from this, but hopefully this gives you a starting point for some research on it.

The software does allow you to do a lot of changes, but, there isn't really anything else out there that you can use to do this.

Darn. Well I'll do some research and see if I can find any way to customize it more based off the information you gave me.
