A FastLED “simulator” is something I’d find really really handy, but it’s always been a “copious free time” kind of project.
cant seem to get it going on my teensy 3.1
Which FastLED branch were you using? Im thinking my beta branch might be the reason.
the test solid colors work fine… but i can some randomness once it trys everything else
I am using the 2.1 branch which I last downloaded on the 1st June.
Didn’t think I was using anything that would be affected by FastLED changes. I will need to look into this 
Im using the beta 2.1. Its acting pretty random on only one strip so I think that could be why. Ill take a vid tonight.
fixed my previous issue i was having. i was declaring num_leds twice
This is strange! I have an email with a different comment in it to the one above, it mentions MATRIX_TYPE.
The Matrix Types are declared in the LED_MATRIX.h:-
HORIZONTAL_MATRIX
VERTICAL_MATRIX
HORIZONTAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX
VERTICAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX
Have you got things workings now?
yes, literally as soon as i posted my comment i figured it out! lol it looks awesome on my matrix! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIILO65DMA4
I just need to figure out how to flip it with the mirror options.
@Peter_Chestna : here’s the scrolling text code for FastLED that you probably want to look at.
what kind of microcontroller did you used for your LED sir? thanks
I have been using Teensy 3.1’s as they are cheapish but fast
