Sends a shimmer across the strip at defined (or random) intervals
Optional brightness modulators: sine or perlin noise
Can be used as an overlay to other effects.
* centralize font selection logic into getFontInfo()
* removed unneeded parameter "numberOfChars" from drawText()
* new file: wled_fonts.hpp to centralize font management logic (inline)
* only compile wchar16ToCodepage437 when WLED_ENABLE_FULL_FONTS
* minor cleanup
* introducing WLED_MAX_SEGNAME_LEN from upstream
* default: max name length = 48
* hopefully found all places where the segment name length was hardcoded (32, 33, 34)
* some comments still refer to "32" but wtf
* fixed a bug that caused wrong behavior with segment mirroring
(effects must use virtualHeight() / virtualWidth() instead of height() / width())
* added image blur as an option (second slider)
* added very basic error reporting for users
* up to 25% faster, especially with big animated gifs
* made all local variables "static" (don't pollute global namespace)
* drawPixelCallback: cache calculation that do not depend on x/y position
* reduced memory allocations on boards without PSRAM, to avoid crashes
For maintainers of custom effects: replace "return mode_solid()" with "return mode_oops()"
Effect errors fall back to Akemi (2D) or Rainbow(1D) instead of SOLID ORANGE.
- fixed inconsitencies in size rendering
- fixed palette being wrapped in color by position and color by age modes
- Fixed bug in memory layout: for some unknown reason, if flags come before particles, last flag is sometimes overwritten, changing memory laout seems to fix that
- New color modes in PS Fireworks 1D:
- custom3 slider < 16: lower saturation (check1: single color or multi-color explosions)
- custom3 slider <= 23: full saturation (check1: single color or multi-color explosions)
- custom3 slider > 23: color by speed (check 1 has not effect here)
- custom slider = max: color by age or color by position (depends on check1)
- removed local buffer for ESP8266 in 1D system to save on RAM
- increased particle brightness in PS Impact
- minor tweak in collision binning (might improve speed)
- removed comments and some other unused stuff
- fixed a few compiler wranings
* made timing calculations work with large led counts
* improve randomness by injecting esp_random()
* ripple 2D: avoid ugly artifacts, by limiting circles to on-screen coordibnates
controls the number of phases shown by the effect
breaking - the old code was using a fixed width per wave, while the new one always fits the same number waves into the panel width.
* removed dead code
* merge octopusStep and radialStep --> octoSpeed
* improve speed slider resolution by first multiplying, then dividing
Thanks @ewoudwijma
you still have to use a trick -> the "expand 1D" drop-down is hidden once you select a 2D-capable effect
* Create your segment with 2 colums or 2 rows (might also need "transpose"
* Select a 1D effect like chunchun
* set expand to "Pixels" or "Bar"
* now select the GEQ effect
--> Flat GEQ runs in the previously set expand mode.
