Title: How to move sequences between effects/lights...Old House/New House
Post by: szaske on November 01, 2021, 10:43:30 PM

I moved to a new house this year and I'm going through the process of altering my existing sequences to fit my new house. Is there any tools in XLights that can help me with the transition?  Let's say I had a string of 50 pixels in a straight line on my previous house and I want to convert those effects to a 174 pixel square (that outlines a new window). I hoping some people here can give me some ideas on how to make the transition easier.

First just copy the show folder to a new name and start with that to save the old stuff.  There is a method to replace an existing model with a new model.  I don't know the exact steps but I would start with creating a model and then right-clicking to see the options.  If you plan on changing models names then you will get prompted to map the missing model names when you open the old sequences.
