Getting updated reef-pi code from JFReyes
#66
Very nice work Jose, thank-you! Here's the commands to type in Pi terminal for people to install, makes it a little easier I think as I needed to dig to get urls.

sudo wget https://github.com/prsws/reef-pi/release...DIFIED.deb

sudo dpkg -i reef-pi-4.1-190-gf4d1fbb-MODIFIED.deb

I haven't tried but I'm assuming you can't update to your version using reef-pi UI?

I definitely noticed the changes in UI, a couple things I think could be improved.
  • On equipment list I see beside each column is the column name, maybe move that to top of each column so it's not repeated. My first look I wasn't sure what the check box at the end was for.
  • The hover color is good but when line is expanded the hover color still changes, maybe background should be locked to hover color so it doesn't disappear, like this it's a little hard on the eyes when it flickers due to mouse location. Also every time I click a setting there a different on click color that changes the background, a little distracting.
  • I also didn't know what the custom color titles meant except "NavBar Background Color" and "Brand" made sense once I saw it was for the name. 

I know I'm difficult. :)

I love the boxes around the connectors, it was confusing for some and now grouped it makes more sense visually. 

Another nice feature would be text tooltips for different options. If you hover over a feature in say settings window a small box would appear with a brief description of what it does. I know this would take a lot, just something I always think would be nice. 

Anyways your doing a great job and thanks for sharing.
