Do You Need Help? Post it here / Help Importing Face Node Range from Sub-Model
« on: June 06, 2021, 08:06:57 AM »
Not sure if this is a software issue, I'm not doing it right, or if the functionality isn't intended to do what I'm trying to do.
I created a few custom sub-models on a GE Hattitude Triune. Rather than re-draw these as a Face, I'm trying to 'import' the models. In doing so, I'm getting an error saying "xModel file dimensions are too big".
Here's what I do:
1. In xLights, add a new Sub-Model to my Triune, draw it, then export the Sub-Model to an XModel (.xmodel) file.
2. Go to Faces (on the same Triune), add a new Face, select "Node Ranges" from the drop down.
3. Double-click the 'Face Outline' row header to bring up the Select Nodes (draw) interface.
4. Click the 'From Model' button and select the .xmodel file I created in #1.
The result: "xModel file dimensions are too big".
Should this work? Am I missing an important step?
Thanks!
