Post by: Gilrock on September 15, 2016, 04:03:31 PM: FYI....I went over how to do some of the new curve options in the Shockwave, Fan, and Morph effects starting around the 1:34:40 mark. Also went over some other items like effect aligning. It was a little random since I hadn't prepared anything and it was an impromptu session for me.

Post by: beatlerat on September 17, 2016, 10:02:48 AM: I certainly appreciate Steve spending time to demonstrate the layering effects in xLights. It was very informative and insightful. Thanks to Keith for chiming in (early morning perhaps?) and Gil for his presentation on new curve options in the Shockwave, Fan, and Morph effects. It was the best Wednesday night session yet. The xLights crew have the best customer service of any product out there.
Thanks guys!
