On the computer, black out pixels that are not associated with LEDs #9

Currently we show the Sketch in a rectangle on the computer screen. We need to keep this mode as an option, but there needs to be another mode that blacks out any pixels that are not associated with an LED.

This is critical to testing animations to see if they will appear correctly on the art car.

Hi, I have started a graphic map of the LED placement. Hope to have something this week. One side at least...

What does graphic map mean? To do this task we will use the existing data structures that map the pixels. Probably we should discuss before you get too far into this.

I want to do a physical check of the LED layout and map it in an xy grid showing the strands and how they run. Then check this against whats in the current program data. I don't think it will take more than a couple hours.

Hey Bill, lets do a voice chat to discuss today. I am on Skype when you are ready.

We now shows both side of the bus, and we only shows pixels that are mapped to actual LED's. This will make programming a Sketch easier, since you will be able to see what is actually visible.
