Title: scrolling text and or image on multiple P10's
Post by: dwbarnett on February 09, 2018, 08:58:56 PM

Hey decor dudes and dudettes,

I have 3 p10 panels on my roof peaks approx. 30-40 feet apart.   I would like to create some effects of imagery
or text to scroll across the 3.

Example I have 3 dancing skeletons that start on the left panel, move to the right. I would like to have the far end skeleton begin to show on the next panel as they scroll off left-right.

Is the easiest way to accomplish this is to create a model of the 3 P10, next to each other, then as they scroll it would fill onto next panels?   I guess I would use the same channels for both?

So may changes going on, didn't know if Gil,Keith,Dan etal may have slipped something in Xlights that would accomplish this goal.

Thanks for any insight.
Best,
David

If you put the three p10' s in a group you can scroll items across in exactly the manor you describe simply by putting the images on the group. I do that in sequences with my matrices all the time.

Yeah put them in a group and use the stacked horizontal render style.
