I created a sequence and while in nutcracker, the effects play fine. when I go to preview, the layered effect on one of my effects is not working. I opened the xlights xml and it show the time slot with the effect, here is the effect as it's copied and pasted from the nutcracker effects building section as well as the xml file and the rgb effects file.

Did you save before viewing in preview?
I pasted your effect into a sequence, viewed it on the nutcracker tab.
I saved it and it played back on the preview just as it did on the nutcracker tab.
-
yes, remember never switch from nutcracker tab to PREview tab without pressing save.
save creates the xseq file that preview needs.
-
yes I save after every change, I have downloaded the new release 3.6.1 and same result

it's working now. I went in and removed my .xseq file and started a new sequence with the xml file and it worked fine in preview. I exported to vixen and all is good. thanks again gentlemen for all that you.
