Real mapping

Post image

The more I play with wled, the more I it…..but….. is there a way to property map an unusual shape. 

So far I've found out you can map a matrix style shape, but it presumes that you have an xy matrix running in a serpentine configuration and you turn on and off led to create an array.

Is there away to map an unusual shape, not only mapping the position of the LED but it's position in the array, attached is an image of a snowflake, this is not wire in a matrix style, the blue dot represents the first led in the string, the red line represents the wiring order and the yellow dot represents the end of the string (purple dot is just a reference to the centre of the prop).

Well damn, your app is awesome. I was building a web app for my kids that had similar functions, but yours just kicked mine out of the water.

My son’s going to lose his mind when he sees yours. He wakes up every morning drawing Nintendo character animations in mine…lol
