xLights Convert / Re: Conversion error code

« on: November 05, 2016, 09:47:34 PM »

I really don't know much about the Vixen format or conversion process.  I did just try to convert to a .vix (Vixen 2.1) format and I saw partway down in the file that there were a bunch of null characters which I assume are 0x00's for some of the channel names.  Checking against the Layout it appears that if you have channels created in setup that you aren't using in Layout then you get a whacky channel name that has a ton of those null characters in the name.  I'm guessing that is what is messing it up.

Thanks
We will try to complete the channel mapping. And attempt another conversion. What your saying definitely makes sense. Thanks again

Bugs in xLights/Nutcracker / HELP with objects

« on: October 10, 2016, 07:27:59 PM »

Hoping someone can help, not sure if it is something I am doing wrong or if it is an issue with the objects themselves. 

When i go to pull an object into the layout, all the objects create the item in the layout, such as tree, circle, wreath, matrix, poly line, star, etc.  they all pull the shape of that object into the layout then you can update the customization of those objects. 

However when i go pull in Single Line or Arch, no object shows up on the layout, and even after I put in all the customizations, still no object displays on the layout.  it shows a white dot on the layout.  Can someone assist and let me know if they have the same issue or if this is a BUG that needs to be fixed? I need to get 4 universes created and i cannot get anything laid out without these items in my layout so dont know if i need to go back to a previous version in order to do this or what i need to do as no matter what i do, i cannot get these 2 objects to work in the layout.

Thanks,
