And I don't know whaere to start.  I have used pixel arches for a few years, but I would like to upgrade them.

I don't know if I use a "submodel" or a second model and how do I design it in xlights?

Thanks to everyone that has gotten me this far in my Christmas show!!  Getting a bigger audience every year.

I'm loving this hobby!

Probably a few ways to do this .. first is it a purchased prop? If so look for an xmodel for that prop.

If not suggest giving this a try...
Right click your arch - export as as a custom model.
Now use Import, to import that custom model back to your layout.
Now on this new prop - you can go to the properties and edit model data.
There you can add the spokes. Keep in mind how you might want to wire this.
