+Heatmap effect may not light up the correct adjacent LEDs for certain key matrix layout such as split keyboards. The following define will limit the effect to pressed keys only:

 ## Custom RGB Matrix Effects :id=custom-rgb-matrix-effects
 
 By setting `RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_USER = yes` in `rules.mk`, new effects can be defined directly from your keymap or userspace, without having to edit any QMK core files. To declare new effects, create a `rgb_matrix_user.inc` file in the user keymap directory or userspace folder.
