  • IMPORT CONFIG File select and import a yaml file and overwrite the current config.yaml in the .ledfx working directory.

  • ABOUT Front and Back end version information + check for updates.

  • RESTART Shutdown and restart LedFx core. May launch a new browser front end.

  • Global Transitions Enforce common transition time on all virtuals / effects or allow individual configuration.

  • Scan on startup Scan for any new WLED devices on every launch of LedFx.

  • Scene on startup Force scene selection to selected option on LedFx startup. In this example the scene elephant will be activated at startup.

  • Auto-generate Virtuals for Segments When adding WLED devices to LedFx will also create individual Virtuals for each Segment defined on the WLED device.
