I only have 3 models. Roofline group I created, pixel curtain group I created and a 16 strand flat pixel tree created using the xlights model.

I am just learning the 4. xlights and I cannot get the 16 strand tree to play back correctly in my house preview. I am only seeing the 1st 8 strands playing. However in the model preview the complete pixel tree plays correctly on all 16 strands.
Please someone point out my stupidity so I can quit OCD ing about this.

Should I have completely removed my 3.15 version before loading the newer 4.?

Thanks
Chip

Are you really installing xLights 4?  That's way old.  You should install one of latest version like 2017.24.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will load up 2017.24 on the office computer and see if it works better for me.
I have been happy using the ancient 3.15 version but I would like to use some of the newer effects afforded by the newer software.
