Title: Center effect
Post by: djohnson1810 on September 19, 2016, 01:05:35 PM

So I am working with one of my new mini trees.  I dropped the effect Marque on it.  It looks great in the model preview but when I  output to the actual tree it is offset to the left.  I dropped other effects on it with the same result.  Any ideas what I am doing wrong? It appears that xLights has a different opinion of where the center is than I do.  :-)

It sounds like you didn't wire up the actual tree like you have the xlights model. I would use tools, test and command specific lights so you can see what is going on.

So what is your opinion of where the center is?

I left out an important piece. It is a 270° tree. The center is very obvious.  It is a custom tree I made. The 270° may not be exact. Not sure that would cause this problem though.

Looks like I should have listened to Phrog30.  Found a wiring mixup.  I am attempting to correct now.
