I must be doing something silly wrong.  Created a custom model of a present prop.  Present has lights that go up the size of each face in a line & then meet on the top in an X.  Model works find with the prop.

Want to use a fan effect to make the lights rotate when viewed from the top, with the center of the top as the center of rotation.    Have tried stacked-y and top perspective without luck.

There are lights in the base of the present.   Want them to work independently, which is why I created a submodel.

It has to be a Per Preview buffer and then you select a Preview angle you saved from the Layout tab.

Tried that.  No luck.  See for yourself with the attached project.

Is it an issue with my model?   Other models seem to work fine, but this is the only custom model I am working with.
