Help with Boscoyo Tune To Sign Matrix

**techs21** · 10-07-2022, 08:45 PM

Hello All

I have bout this tune to sign so I can display the radio station, but I am having problems getting it wot work right in Xlights. I am not sure if there is a way to separate the matrix part of this sign in xXlights so I can get this to display the station or if this is a single strand sign. Any help will be great I currently have the matrix part wired in 10 separate strands

Did you use the model in xLights to add it to your matrix?

The model available for download has the submodels assigned. Just double click on the model in the sequencer tab to show the submodels.

I have the same issue. When I turn on movement, you can see it goes from one side to the other, then moves up 1 row of pixels and goes back the other direction and continues until the top line of the matrix.. I'm struggling to figure out how to get it to work.

Try making your font size smaller.

I have the font at its smallest size in the selector. Is there a specific font people use? I'm still only getting 2 lines filling in with whatever color. (You'll see I put in "Happy Holidays on the left, and I am trying different fonts, but its always the same.)

I figured it out. I had to correct their submodels. The submodel was showing the matrix as a single line only, so I made it like the following image shows and now the text is showing up correctly. I don't know why it took me so long to look at the submodels to think about changing it.
