WLED Custom Scrolling Text - A Quick Tutorial

A quick tutorial on how to set up the scrolling text animation on WLED. This project example is using a 32x8 pixel grid array of WS2812B LEDs. An Arduino ESP8266 Wemos D1 Mini was used for the microcontroller. To see how this 2D LED Matrix Box was made, check out the video here: • WLED 2D Matrix Project...

How to apply two different effect on each half of the leds, one side random flickering and other side android type effect at the same time?

[@Electriangle]

In the WLED application, you can use the "segments" tab to separate the lights into parts and control them with different effects. You need to define the segments by typing the start and stop LEDs for each segment (for example, 0 to 50 for one segment, then add a new segment for 51 to 100, etc.). When the checkmark for the segment is active, then it will change the effect for that segment.
If you search for "WLED segments" on TH-cam, you can find a tutorial that can help explain how to use them.

Is there away to display two rows of text at the same time?

[@Electriangle]

Yes, it does work with more rows of text. I just tested it to confirm. You simply add another segment and adjust the start and stop boundaries. For example, you could make the first segment "Start Y" set to 0 and the "Stop Y" set to 8. Then for the second segment, you could make the "Start Y" set to 8 and the "Stop Y" set to 16.
The only thing is you can't have less than 6 pixels tall or the text will get cut off. That is the minimum height it needs to display the letters. So for my matrix project shown in the video, it doesn't fit with the example I gave. But if your matrix project is bigger, then it will work fine.
