8x8 Matrix

These blocks control an 8x8 LED matrix driven by a MAX72xx-style controller.

info

The matrix is monochrome. Shared graphics blocks use HIGH and LOW for pixel state instead of full colours.

Add 8x8 matrix

Attach the matrix by choosing its data, clock, and chip-select pins.

Show text on matrix

Scroll text across the matrix.

Set matrix pattern

Set the full 8x8 pattern at once with the matrix editor field.

info

For custom dots, lines, and shapes, the blocks on the Shared Graphics page also work with the 8x8 matrix.
