Particle Dev (for Photon) using FastLED 3.1.5 is throwing me a “has no member named” error when trying to use either of the setMaxPower functions.
This page suggests those two functions have been available since 3.1.1:
Has anyone else seen this error?
I haven’t encountered this particular issue, but I use Particle Photon as my main platform and I know that not all of the latest functionality is available on Particle. The one I encountered was CRGBArray.
OK, I’ll just assume that is the case here. I can use a max brightness for my needs, I suppose. Thanks.
I’ve been using the FastLED2 library for Photon. It lists as 3.1.8. Maybe try that library?
Hmm, interesting. I’m not sure what the difference is between the two FastLED libraries in Particle. The 3.1.8 version lists “RickDB” in addition to Daniel & Mark. But it doesn’t show a number after the cloud icon, which I take to mean fewer people have added it to their projects? In any case, I searched for setMaxPower (which @Bill_Goodrich was looking for) and didn’t see it in the source code. I also didn’t find CRGBSet which is one of the features I’m missing, for Particle.

Honestly, I’m probably running into the same problem and don’t know it. I’m a newbie and have only successfully gotten a few sketches to work. I’m learning, though!
