Example of driving an Adafruit NeoPixel Ring with the Digispark Arduino-compatible board
#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>

#Hi

I really love you're project . I'm trying to combine a couple of codes , but i do not understand it .
How can I make you're project work with a button ? The thing I want to do is , if my daughter pushes a button , a new cycle begins . Until that button is pushed again I want that cycle to loop .

I would like to have her choose out of sollid colors , and the rainbow effect .

The text under this one is a copy paste of my help I asked on the arduino forum


I really hope you can help me out with this.
If it would be possible , I want to add you're code and the other code in one file .

I'm a real noob in arduino language , to bad I don't speak it :)

I am doing a project for my daughter . I have a old boring ceiling light and I integrated a neopixel ring with 24 leds.
I was very lucky that the excisting led ring was the same inner diameter as the neo pixel ring so I could attach the ring to this piece to keep it in place

I found the code here https://www.hackster.io/Arnov_Sharma_makes/neopixel-x-arduino-x-button-c26e9a

But I am struggling a bit with the code . I want to adjust it , but as I 've mentioned before I'm a noob at programming .

Here is my problem

I have 5 solid colors in a row . Those work fine each time I push the button to change the color.

The 6 th an 7 th push of the button gives me the rainbow ,rainbowcycle and theaterChaseRainbow ( case 6 and 7 and 8 in the sketch ) but I want those be in a loop .

when I come to case 6 , I can't go to case 7 until the complete cycle has ended . The same if I want to go from case 7 to 8 I have to wait until the cyclus is ended .

so this is what I want :
I just want to get every rainbow effect in a loop and toggle all modes with the touch of a button without waiting ,so my daughter can choose what mood effect she wants . , and get everything rainbow effect in a loop .

I really hope someone can help me out , because it's kind of a x mass gift and I've been struggling all week long .

Stay save and happy holidays
