Can someone tell me what this means....
« on: February 22, 2017, 04:25:51 PM »
   -- enh (keith)   Make LOR import more like xLights import ... using a tree rather than a grid. There is some risk this breaks "CCR"

I have asked before, still haven't got any info.  Is this a newer easier mapping setup, for lor to xlights.

The other was a time consuming pia, when having to map nodes. Hope this will make things easier.

Thanks for any info

Best,
David

I haven't tried it but just by reading the comment in the readme I would not expect huge changes.  Its only saying it was switched from a grid object to a tree object.  That just means you can expand and collapse the items on the left easier.  If there are other improvements I'm sure we will learn of them soon.

Ok, I could finally get on my computer, briefly.

D/l version.4. Set up a LOR import, mapping screen came up, only diff I see, is all my kodels now listed on the side.

However, you still have to click in the window, scroll to find the lor element to map too. Unfortunately, after selecting that lor element, the selection window scrolls to the very beginning again!! Agghhh!!

I realize this is a low priority item, as apparently not too many folks map the lor stuff...just use data layers.

I do both, if there was someway in the code to keep the selection box from moving to the top of yhe list, that would help considerably, either way still royal pia

Would there be someway not too difficult, to possibly setup the mapping similiar to the test screen. something like a tree view for the lor stuff as well. I don't know, i'm not a programmer. Wish I was, so I could help.

Hopefully, Keith etal can revisit yhe mapping layout in yhe future.

Thank You for a great program.

Best,
David
