Title: Subfolder question
Post by: nmiller0113 on August 17, 2019, 12:13:19 PM

In the subfolders setup section, there are checkboxes to use "Show Folder" or use "Sequence Location".  I always thought those were the same thing.  May be a dumb question but could someone break the difference for me and how you'd actually make them different in xLights because I don't see that either.  Thanks!

Sequence location is wherever you chose to save the sequence XML. It defaults to show folder but lots of people create sub folders for their sequences.  It is a bad idea to store it outside your show folder or in a sub folder.

Ok, I follow Keith.  So if I select a different folder than my show folder it will follow that if I select "Use Sequence Location".  Thanks again!
