Non Reactive Animations

Note 1: Due to its limited capability, we have disabled 2D animations on the ESP8266 platform, although those settings still show up in the LED settings UI.
Note 2: If you are using 2D, please ensure your 2D settings are correct. We aren't checking them.
Note 3: Some 2D routines require a minimum of 4 pixels in both directions. You may get a red blinking pattern if too small.

2D Julia notes

This animation supports palettes. fft1-3 affect the rate of change of size/location rather than just changing the size/location. fft3 controls the window size, where the midpoint keeps the window the same size, while a value to the left continuously makes the window smaller, and larger to the right. How to reset this animation? Just center the sliders, click another animation and then select this one again. Feel free to PR a different control layout (along with associated documentation). We get to use up to 5 sliders.

Thanks are in order

Oh, and special thanks are in order for urish for creating wokwi, Elliot and his team for soulmatelights and Stepko and ldirko for some awesome 2D animations. With their approval, we were able to convert and publish several of their animations to use with WLED.
