I am looking for a library to show static and scrolling text an an Ws2812-Array.
I found RGBLEDS, but the project is two years old.
Does anybody know a better/newer library for this purpose?

I am working on a similar project right now. Aaron’s code works as I can get the samples to run without much effort. What I am seeing though is that the LEDMatrix.h code has the matrix built backwards that what I am using. I assumed all matrix’s were built using the layout with the 0 pixel in the upper left corner. All of my text is mirrored. I am trying to figure out how to resolve that issue.
@Scott_Peterson Between the starting corner, horizontal or vertical direction, and the choice of serpentine or zig-zag, there are 16 different ways to layout a 2d matrix!
Try setting either your MATRIX_WIDTH or MATRIX_HEIGHT value to a negative number.

But you have seen what’s written there ?
“WILL NO LONGER BE MAINTAINEDSEE SEPARATE CLASSES OFF THE ROOT OF MY GITHUB”
Just check his other projects
Sorry, you are right.
I thought “see separate folders inside this project”.
Should have read more carefully. 
Great!!
If you are willing to use software and drive the pixels via serial or Ethernet then I have the solution. And it uses fastLED.

Do you have more informations about this setup and the used software/firmware? There are not many informations in the video description!
Yes I am working on getting more
Info up very soon. As far as the hardware chip
Look for teensy 3.2 octows2811. The firmware to
Run the chip is on github under “artnet” “arduino” and “sacn” “e1.31” and for serial look for glediator serial arduino. I am working on simplifying this setup with a new board with base code examples and should have this out soon and will share the info. The software used is jinx . Some use glediator too.
