Flood light problem
« on: February 17, 2018, 10:41:29 AM »
Hi everyone, I have had a problem with my flood lights, and have not been able to figure out what i am doing wrong. so to make a long story short I am including a link to a small video i made which is much better then for me to try and explain.

Yeah I fixed that flood light drawing problem 9 days ago but there has not been a new release since I fixed it:

Ralph,
I'm trying to figure out the best way to implement my flood lights.
I'm using single line in my layout
And bars effect in the sequence
Kinda works but must be somthing better.

What do you use in your layout for Floods?
And what effect worked for you?
thanks

That description doesn't really tell us what you don't like.  You don't like how the model looks?  Single Line model can work just fine.  You didn't show a screenshot so we have no clue if you know how to modify the appearance to actually make it look like a floodlight.  Only other option is the DMXModel with the Flood Light type but then you are restricted to On and Colorwash effects.
