Enable B/W Color Mode


By default, Color and Grayscale are available as color mode in the PLOSSYS 4 panel. If you want to enable the Black & White color mode additionally, customize the panel configuration files for the PLOSSYS 4 panel.

For general information about how to customize the PLOSSYS 4 panel, refer to Customize the Panel


This is how you enable the Black & White color mode additionally:

  1. Unless done, prepare customized panel configuration files panel-<customer_name>.json and settings-<customer_name>.json. For more information, refer to Customize the Panel.

  2. In both customized panel configuration files for the PLOSSYS 4 panel, search for the Color property and extend it by the settings for bw as follows:

    {
      ...
      "json_schema": {
        ...
        "Color": {
          "type": "string",
          "fillBy": "Capabilities/ColorDefault",
          "default": "bw",
          "description": "Color",
          "widget": "toggle",
          "oneOf": [
            {
              "enum": [
                "color"
              ],
              "description": "color",
              "icon": "format_color_fill"
            },
            {
              "enum": [
                "gray"
              ],
              "description": "gray",
              "icon": "format_color_reset"
            },
            {
              "enum": [
                "bw"
              ],
              "description": "bw"
            }
          ],
          "visibleIf": {
            "Capabilities/Color": [
              true
            ]
          }
        }
        ...
      }
      ...
    }
