now, if i were to say that 4 grids would have to be made the same exact way and they would all have to work together.. then i could see someone say that was a difficult thing to do.
trying to accomplish exactly this: i cannot explain it any better
1.) 100 rgb leds
2.) 100 instances that light up 17 leds per instance (based on a users choice)
ex: if user selected "1", then a certain 17 leds would light up out of the 100 (some will be different shades of green), green will turn into red as needed - but that's important atm but the shades of green are.
the user will pick the instance through a 4 digit led (with 3 buttons.. up, down and set) ignore the set button atm.. the leds will light accordingly to the last 3 digits of the 4 digit led.. the first digit will be used as a letter. and we are not really even talking about the digit led.. except that the instance 1-100 will be select through it.
is that so hard? yet any help i have gotten, nobody has shown me the exact parts to get, nor any exact coding.. just thoughts
