models and layout being part of a saved secquence

Gerry ,  Layout section had no models and when I open the sequence no models are found.
 Grilock , I left it in the same file default spot x-lights wanted to go.  c-program files- x86- x lights. I opened the rgbeffects XML file and it has all my model s listed, 10 3 channel mini trees, a mega tree , 2 coro flakes and one coro star. I copied that file into the x lights show directory. Still no layout and no models.....

Ok worked it out.....I had the show folder as "  c-program files- x86- x lights " when I created a new show folder outside of x lights " on the desk top" and placed the show file from my desk top in it, I now have models. Thank you for your assistance but as usual it was operator error.

It was the ole forest for the trees syndrome.

Good you figured it out. When one does that it sticks in the ole grey matter much better. LOL

Perhaps use diredtories and sub directiries in My Dicuments, because at some stage you will want to park stuff that you have completed or are working on , or have imported etc and sub directories within the show directory are quite useful.
