Help with a spiral
« on: June 11, 2016, 07:51:21 PM »
I have a custom element that is basically a spiral with two pixels on each spoke - 16 spokes in all.  How do you group the pixels on each spoke so each are the same color/effect?  I know some controllers can group pixels but mine doesn't have that feature.

Thank you,

Jason

You'd need to create another model for each spoke.  We've talked about a possible feature to create virtual sub models.  If we could implement that sometime it would be the way to go for this.

Thank you for the answer to that.  As well as the info on a possible future for it.  Sounds interesting.

I used a matrix for a spinner so I create a vertical matrix in your case 2 high and 16 wide. Then if you do a curtain or single line it will change each spoke as it chases accross model
