Feature Request: Allow fading to a specified color over specified time with RGB Led.

[danielhep]

Similar to the fade method for standard LEDs, a fade to color method would be perfect for RGB LEDs. This would make doing smooth color effects much easier.

This might already be doable with the Animation class, though it's not well documented.

var five = require("johnny-five");
var board = new five.Board();

board.on("ready", function() {

  var led = new five.Led.RGB({
    pins: { red: 6, green: 5, blue: 3 }
  });

  var animation = new five.Animation(led);

  animation.enqueue({
    duration: 2000,
    cuePoints: [0, 1.0],
    keyFrames: [ null, [0, 0, 255] ]
  });

});

Even if this works, I acknowledge that a wrapper method like Led.fade() would be nice.

Hi @danielhep ,

Johnny-Five contributors and maintainers are loathe to close issues where someone has a need. We don't want anyone to ever feel that we don't care, but we just haven't gotten to this feature yet. Rather than leave it languishing as an open issue we have created a Requested Features page and added your request for Led.RGB.fade there.
