Arches

[kevinp]

I'm having another dilemma when it comes to arches that I'm hoping someone can help me out on.

I'm planning on having 4 arches in my display this year, two on the left and two on the right of a mini mega tree.  I'm assuming that node number 1 is always next to the incoming data/power wire.  Since I'm running two arches off the left I need to keep node 1 close to the tree & controller.  I can't replicate this in the preview because node 1 is always to the left for the starting point of the arch.

Is there a way to reverse the pixel order on a model so that pixel 1 is on the right?  Essentially the nodes would be in descending order.

I've tried selecting the bottom right option for the starting corner, but the nodes still don't align properly.  This doesn't affect my arches 3 and 4 since the nodes are in the correct ascending order already.

What type of lights and controller are you using for your arches?

I will be using the E682 from Sandevices and LED pixel strips.

OK, I just read that the E682 can reverse a universe.  So I can set up the sequence normally in xLights and then will need to reverse the one universe within the controller so that it plays correctly.  That's how I'm understanding it at least.  Am I right?  So much to learn for my rookie year.
