Tunnel of Lights?

[DanHouston]

I am going to be changing my large driveway arches into a tunnel of lights over the next couple of years.  It will basically be a matrix draped over an arch frame. I see I can crate arches horizontally linked together, but I don't see a way to do it vertically? Anyone merged the matrix/arch together in some way? I sort of manually drew some arches and then put text on a matrix with the same channels, but it is not coming out at all correct (on the arches).

If anyone has any guidance I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

Some of the methods you can try.
1. Draw all of your arches individually and lay them out how you like put them in a group and play with the group default layout mode (vertical stack scaled).
2. Make custom model using the same channels laying the Arches out as a matrix they way you want it and treat it as a shadow model.
