Title: trouble with an effect in xlights
Post by: jemerick71 on August 22, 2016, 11:01:46 AM
I'm having an issue with an icicle effect. I changed channel numbers of my effects so the location of the controllers works better for the location of my lights. When I changed the channel number of my icicles all of the show effects for that element disappeared.

I saved and rendered and restarted xlights. I finally figured out after deleting and re-adding the effect that I had to set it to default. Now, the only way I can see the effects is to drill down to strands and then nodes. If I try to make any changes that then it screws it up.

I also drilled down to nodes in another effect (mega tree star) and now the effects that I had there are only showing up in "nodes" also.

FYI, my show is entirely A/C. Everything is set to use a single channel from 2 Renard TR24 controllers.

A picture is worth a 1000 words.  I can't tell what you mean.  We don't have an icicle effect that I know of.
