effects on homemade star
#1
hi guys,
I'm having trouble getting my homemade star to accept sweep events.
I have included the mapping to show the layout.
Everything is configured correctly so I'm confused (as usual).

Have you placed the star in your visualisation ? (Use the pixel grid visualisation item and select your star item).

hi Craig,
Yes I have put it in the visualisation and seems to be working fine on everything except effects. I used the scan tool to configure it and everything else seems fine.
When I call for a sweep effect, the software just doesn't build!

Thanks.

It may be that the sweep is too quick. Have you tried increasing the fade up or fade down time in the sweep? Or tried the fill on or fill off style in the sweep? Do they work?

If it still does not work, send me a sample show with your star item in and I will take a look.

Hi, Craig,
Sometimes we can be astounded by our own stupidity!
I had configured the star with pixel grouping for each arm and had ticked the 'Exclude Events' box.
Hey-ho we live and learn!
Sorry to have taken up your time on this one.

Ah yes that explains it, well spotted.
That exclude option was added for talking pixel faces so you can run effects on the face outline without the eyes and mouth sections.
