Anybody got code links for interesting scenes for single strips ? I have the demo reel and https://gist.github.com/kriegsman. Looking for some inspiration.

That’s a pretty open sort of request. What sort of stuff inspires YOU? Take a shot at replicating something you think is fun. When you get stuck post your code to get help sorting it out. Experimenting and discovering is half the fun.

Here’s something you can mess with:

marmilicious/FastLED_examples/blob/master/three_moving_pixels_v3.ino

//***************************************************************
// Three moving pixels example
//     Uses modulo, %, to make pixel position "loop" around and
//     stay in valid pixel range.
//
// Marc Miller, Feb 2015.  Updated Jan 2016.
//***************************************************************


#include "FastLED.h"
#define LED_TYPE NEOPIXEL  // Strip type: NEOPIXEL, APA102, LPD8806, etc.
#define DATA_PIN 6
//#define CLOCK_PIN 13
#define NUM_LEDS 12
//#define COLOR_ORDER BGR
#define MASTER_BRIGHTNESS 100  // Master brightness (Range is 0-255)
CRGB leds[NUM_LEDS];

int16_t positionRed = 0;    // Set initial start position of Red pixel
int16_t positionWhite = 4;  // Set initial start position of White pixel

here is an older example from Thomas Eldredge, still based on FastSPI. You can extract code segments, most work with FastLED right away.

@marmil
something like this (string not matrix)

@Juergen_Bruegl
Thanks. This is what I was looking for.
