show Ring
Show a ring of pixels that match the colors in a list.
light.showRing('')
You can set some or all of the colors in the pixel ring with a list. The list is a string with the names of the colors you want for each the pixel. To set half the pixels to blue and the other half to yellow, you make a color list this way:
'blue blue blue blue blue yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow'The ring will have the colors assigned to each pixel like you see here:
light.showRing("blue blue blue blue blue yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow")When you put two or more ||light:show ring|| blocks together, your program will pause before showing the next one.
This gives you time to see each ring change.
Parameters
- colors: a string with the list of colors for the pixels in the ring.
- interval: the amount of time the program waits before showing the next pixel ring (if there is one), in milliseconds.
