Is there a way of editing the patterns?
There only seems to be one with quick jumps between points (Squarechoppy), which is great for scanners that can jump from one position to another.
Can I invent my own shapes or change the ones that are there?

Changed the title. The patterns you're talking about are for EFX, not RGB Matrix.

And no, you can't create your own. They are mathematical formulae hardcoded in the QLC+ internals, based on parametric equations.

Can you give us an example of a pattern you would need ?

Hi Masiimo,

what about half-circle? Would it be possible? Missing that one mostly.

Thanks!

Select Pattern = Lissajous and set X-Frequency = 1 and Y-Frequency = 2.
Use Y-Fase (= 0 or 180) to set the direction (in other words: to select which half off the circle you want :)).
A QLC Workspace is like a Bob Ross painting: "it's your world, you can create whatever you want!"

Wow that's cool, thanks for the tip!
