HI
There a nOOb here.
I use ws2812 16x16 Matrix and arduino uno
I make some costume for performance on stilts walking.
For now i learn how to change HOWDY to something i need.
I am interesting to put some logo,Is it possible?I am new to all this,so any help would be great.
Thanks

You might want to check out Aaron Liddiment’s library for adding sprites and text to FastLED: https://github.com/AaronLiddiment/RGBLEDS

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 4:48pm

Hi
Thanks for fast reply.
I already checked Aaron Liddiment library but give me error

Arduino: 1.6.5 (Mac OS X), Board: “Arduino/Genuino Uno”

SpriteExample1.ino:3:23: fatal error: LEDMatrix.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Error compiling.

I dont know how to put this header files
<FastLED.h>
<LEDMatrix.h>
<LEDSprites.h>

Thanks

Juergen_Bruegl · September 30, 2015, 5:49pm

Have you downloaded the library and put it under
…\Arduino1.6.5\libraries ?
rename it from RGBLEDS-master to RGBLEDS

The first lines of your sketch are:
#include <FastLED.h>
#include <LEDMatrix.h>
#include <LEDSprites.h>

check out the samples you find in FastLED

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 6:44pm

Yep
I do same for fastLED and fastled is working OK

For RGBLEDS sketc are:
#include <FastLED.h>

#include <LEDMatrix.h>

// Change the next 6 defines to match your matrix type and size

#define LED_PIN 2
#define COLOR_ORDER GRB
#define CHIPSET WS2812B…

Can you enable verbose compiler output in Arduino, then paste it in http://pastebin.com or http://gist.github.com and post the link here?

Juergen_Bruegl · September 30, 2015, 7:52pm

well buddy, then post your code on pastebin.
Right now we know your data pin and your LEDs. What’s your matrix setup? ‘As the ox plows’?
… and one little thing (besides of the compiler issue): the UNO might be a little too narrow-chested … ehhm weak for 256 LEDs,

Jason_Coon · September 30, 2015, 8:04pm

Have you restarted Arduino since you added the library?

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 8:25pm

Yep Arduino is restarted.
Show verbose output during:
compilation
upload
is tick
? how to take code

sorry for dummy question

Jason_Coon · September 30, 2015, 8:31pm

If those options are checked, after you compile and get errors, copy all the text in the bottom pane, then paste into http://pastebin.com, then post a link to the pastebin here.

Jason_Coon · September 30, 2015, 9:07pm

OK, what’s the path where you have LEDMatrix.h?

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 9:16pm

/Volumes/DATAhp/Users/dzuljo/Documents/Arduino/libraries/RGBLEDS/LEDMatrix/LEDMatrix.h

Jason_Coon · September 30, 2015, 9:21pm

Move LEDMatrix up a directory, get rid of the RGBLEDS directory. Then restart Arduino and try compiling again.

@Juergen_Bruegl called it. An Arduino Mega might work, but I’d suggest spending $20 on a Teensy, which will give you much more RAM and Flash (and CPU) to work with: https://www.pjrc.com/store/teensy32.html

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 9:46pm

Thanks for helping me,everything i try its working except RGBLEDS

Jason_Coon · September 30, 2015, 9:57pm

No problem. If you post your code on gist, I can see if there’s a way to get it working on an Uno. Are you declaring both cLEDMatrix and CRGB led array? You only need the cLEDMatrix. That’d be an extra 768 bytes you could free up.

Saso_Dzuljo_Petrovsk · September 30, 2015, 10:23pm

I am confused ,whats is cLEDMatrix and CRGB.

Usualy i find textExample 3 is working in RGBLEDS,i can try to learn something here.
My main question is ,is it possible to put logo/picture in small resolution on arduino uno and ws2812

Thanks
