Hi,
I get this FastLED "No pin/port mappings found" error. I posted the whole error message below. Can you help me with fix this error?

Thanks,
Lou

Error compiling for board Adafruit QT PY (SAMD21).



This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

Apologies, I was using the latest FastLED checkout from github, not the one in the Library Manager (the github checkout version is still 3.3.3, confusingly) And there hasn't been a FastLED full release yet with QT Py support.

If you are familiar with git you can use it to replace the FastLED library in your Arduino "libraries" directory. On a Mac in terminal this would look like:

cd $HOME/Documents/Arduino/libraries
rm -rf FastLED
git clone https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED

and then recompiling in the Arduino IDE.

In Windows and without git you can download a zipfile of the repository by clicking on the "Code" button and clicking "Download ZIP" (see screenshot below). Then place that zip file in your "Documents/Arduino/libraries" folder, right-click on it to Extract All, and then rename the resulting folder of "FastLED-master" to just "FastLED"

Thank you for the code.

I tried increasing the number of LEDs to 30, but it seems only 9 work.

Hi @Yousefff1,
You will need to decrease the amount of fading from CRGB(30,30,30) to something like CRGB(10,10,10)

Thank you! I'll test it out.

I appreciate it!
