Ever wondered, how to show more than one animation on the same leds?

Ever wondered, how to show more than one animation on the same leds?
Here some simple code showing a video cross fade between 2 animations running at the same time. Try it out: https://gist.github.com/StefanPetrick/0c0d54d0f35ea9cca983

Super example :slight_smile:

like a boss!

SICK! I’m going to try this now!

#1 runs out of memory compiling over 144 leds
#2 Not sure what pin to use tried all of them don’t work…

@Scottie_D369 What micro controller are you using? Since a block of memory is set up for not one, but three leds arrays, memory could become too large for a low memory controller, and even more so when specifying a large number of pixels.

@Scottie_D369 #1 3 CRGBs mean that you need 9 Byte of RAM for each led. With an UNO (2k RAM) the code should work up to 100 leds.
#2 The code says data = pin 7, clock = pin 14 (Hardware SPI on Teensy 3). You can change this.

@Stefan_Petrick What diffusion material are you using there?

@David_Brailovsky It´s toilet paper.

Haha, nice :slight_smile:
