One potential way around the segment limit is to use ledmaps to group some pixels together.
They allow you to virtually “re-wire” your LEDs so they become more convenient to handle.

For instance, in your egg prop the blossom centers could be grouped so all 5 appear together rather than in their respective blossoms.
If the LEDs in each blossom are numbered 0,1,2,3,4,5 where 0 is top of a petal and 5 is the center,
Then the physical LED order would be BL1[0,1,2,3,4,5]->BL2[6,7,8,9,10,11] ->…->BL5[24,25,26,27,28,29]

You can create an led map that changes that order so that petals appear in blossoms, but all the centers are separate, such as:

{"map":[0,1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,15,16,18,19,20,21,22,24,25,26,27,28,5,11,17,23,29]}

All the petals the appear as: BL1[0,1,2,3,4]->BL2[5,6,7,8,9] ->…->BL5[20,21,22,23,24] and 5 centers appear at 25,26,27,28,29 which could be combined into a single segment for all the centers. You can apply a flashing or coloured effect independent of your other segments

This is just one example, but with a little thought I’m sure you can come up with some possibilities.

@divsys the Egg is wirerd as Folow

Egg_flowers
LEDS Total 50-100
Flower Left Down 55-61
Flower Left UP 66-72
Flower Right UP 78-84
Flower MID 84-90
Flower Right Down 90-96

Flower CENTER 58,68,80,87,92

Wodt you mind to write a Preset with the ledmap1.json
ledmap1.json
{“map”:[58,68,80,87,92]}

for me it is not clear if i can only set the centers alone in the preset by ledma.1

there is no real example o this i can choose the ledmap1 in the dropdown

i made a Wire Map image for more clearence
as you see it is on the 65mm limit to be one strip
Rearangment within the system is posible if someone sees a better resolution starting at 50 if posible as the pre strip jumps in neerest point to the rabbit out
BUT it can be changes as of wirerlength replacment

Goal woodt be to get the centers also colored diferent to the Flower

MAPPING is not very comen EVEN no Youtube Help Video targets this
Eastern is nearing very soon so i need to get it done in time
PLEASE Help

and ofcause i made a small Vido from the output
Wled Line easter egg


and ofcause the Bunny got also a YT Video
WLED 100Pixel Bunny easter Display Video

and a Image With Lights on
