Spherical ornament model?
« on: August 25, 2018, 10:03:18 PM »
Hey, does anyone know how to model a spherical ornament? I'm thinking we'd wrap a 50-pixel string around a 14" diameter wire cage "ball". I can't figure a way to model this in xLights. If I can't do this, I'll just call it one 3 channel RGB string where all the pixels are the same color.

A 3D enhancement to xlights is in BETA, and it will allow for a better viewing and effects on a sphere.
