Submodels not showing up color
« on: September 04, 2016, 07:28:29 PM »
I just upgraded from .46 to .48 and decided to break my snowflake into submodels to play with it.  The effects still work, and great I might add, but it only shows up in white.   I have only tested it in preview, but it would nice if I could see the effects properly.  Did I miss something here?
Thanks.

Yes, more information. Start by including your files... sequence, rgbeffects and network xml. Then a better explanation on what is going on. Videos are great for this.

I just created my first model with submodels yesterday and had the real thing all lit up.  The sub-models work great so yes you did something wrong.  Take another look and tell us what you fix.  It's not the program so don't come running to us so quickly.

Yeah, figured it was something I had done.  I just started playing with this day before and couldn't get the lights to show color.  One of the submodels was set to "1 is unmask" and it was changing the color for all of the submodels to white.  I had evidently left xLights on overnight, and after closing and reopening the program, found that setting one of the submodels to "1 is unmask" would turn that sub model white.  Really don't know how I did that as I wasn't using a layer below.   Awesome addition to an already outstanding program.
