Thought I would post this here, but I will also post this on the Github page. This is what my idea is. Sorry for the bad Photoshop.

I'll stop wasting your time. It seems like the problem was that the keyboard shortcuts xml was overriding the built in keyboard shortcuts. xLights seems to have shortcuts built into it, even if I completely removed the file, some keybinds still worked.

Unfortunately it's not on Windows. I was thinking it would be in the color window. The one that has the options like contrast and such. It would make choosing a color faster.

Enhancement Requests / Addition to Color Picker

The color picker window should have 3 sliders added that are just RGB. So then I don't have to fumble around with the menus to find the color I want. I'm not suggesting that the current system should be removed. For more crazy colors, it works great. But if I just want to quickly make a yellow or light blue, just three sliders would be nice.
Thanks for your time.

Well, after messing around for a while, I found a solution. I just removed the lines in the keyboard shortcuts xml file that relate to the "On" effect. Everything works as intended now.

Nope, I'm just putting the effect right on the model itself.

xLights Version: 2016_45

Issue: In previous versions of xLights, I was able to press the D key to get a fade down effect, then press the U key to get the fade up effect. But in the current version, pressing the D key will work but then pressing the U key will just give a black "on" effect, and vice-versa. It seems the keyboard shortcut function is just not resetting the effect settings, rather, it is saving the start and end values. Thus making the the fade down and fade up effect combine to make just a black "on" effect.

I did notice that there is a "xlights_keybindings.xml" file, could it be that I just have to get a new one or modify this?

Thanks, Gabe.
