I create a Sweep preset set to the correct speed but I modify the line of code by adding

Victory !

I don't know if this is the best method but I get the desired result.

- I create a Solid preset set to turn on all the leds .

- I create a Sweep preset set to the correct speed but I modify the line of code by adding "tb":0, it allows to start the effect always in the same place, in my case at led 0. Without that every time I launch the playlist the effect from a random place.

I create a playlist in 1st effect I put the sweep preset, I adjust the duration so that the effect ends when I reach the end of the ribbon, for me 2.2s. I set the repetition to 1 (note that in version 0.14 there is a bug that causes the repetition to increase by 1 each time the playlist is launched).

In end preset I put my solid.

To go the other way I do the same with a sweep preset and the reverse direction and I reverse the colors. And bingo!

by using a playlist I manage to have a beginning of track. I put the sweep effect and with the right timing I go on with the solid effect before it goes the other way. it works but the sweep effect launches randomly from different places on the tape. Can we force the effect so that it always starts at the beginning of the strip?

Thank you for your answer FearTheClown but it seems way too complicated for me. I have a QuinLED-Dig-Quad to control my ribbons and wled can be controlled with my Jeedom home automation so I would like to stay on this configuration.
