Hi,
FastLED allows for custom ordering of pixels - allows for runnings effects on a strip out of order.
I know there’s some basic Matrixing within NPB, but given it appears remapping is a reasonably easy process (create an array of custom order containing 0 to n, where n = num leds, then read back the array instead of n+1), I was wondering on thoughts as to how to implement it?
I know we had a very brief chat on discord regarding it, but I didn’t quite get it doing what I wanted, and it would be nice to create an interface to remap or even to create patterns that utilize the remapping.
Thoughts?

Abmibox also does the same for TV backlighting.
But they have done it in groups, and you set how many LEDs are in a group, you can then order the groups however you like.
This is useful on corners and joins
Theres a bit of trial and error to figure out where your LEDs are but it works quite well.
You can have a group for each individual LED, that’s how I set up my ambibox
Hi,
I just added this to the latest master!
Just replace the mapping array in the top of FX_fcn.cpp with your mapping (in the case we discussed on Discord I believe you’d want the contents of the fibonacciToPhysical array) and uncomment the #define WLED_CUSTOM_LED_MAPPING 
This is just a compile time option for now though, there is no way to change or disable the custom mapping at runtime.
Spectacular.
I guess the next logical step is to make it a runtime option!
Here’s what I’ve done with it so far - this is using WLED + LedFX + Jason Coons Fibonacci256 board.
Still need to make a case for it!

Looks amazing! I want a fibonacci setup as well, have to build one soon!
Yeah, having it runtime configurable would be ideal, but that might be a bit complicated and cost some memory, but we’ll see
Looks great! Is there a write up on how to use this anywhere?
There’s active discussion and prototyping on the mapping feature now, check out the latest on Discord: Lets go 2 Dimensional - #6 by embedded-creations
