Hello everybody,

I have been mulling over the idea of lining the front of one of the stages I designed with RGB pixels and it would be 104 columns and 10 rows. I noticed QLC+ only allows 100 columns but allows 999 rows. I could simply reverse the numbers but not all the animations work quite right. Fireworks for example would display from the left side going toward the center.

If it isn't too massive of a pain, could we potentially increase the number of columns we could add?

Thank you!

Oh shoot. I must have missed that. I'm using a few builds prior to the newest release to avoid the RGB script crashes. I haven't tried it after the initial issues though. I'm not near the machine at the moment. I'll look Wednesday when I am back there and provide that.

Hey brother. I've been running rgb scripts in a manner I never do during a show. I have all sort of overlapping scripts and quite frankly the program has never run better. It is currently running 15ish% less heavy on CPU usage than I am used to. It seems much more efficient. I have nearly 20k pixels total and I have 13 scripts running at the same time. It has been running for nearly an hour this way.

Nearly three hours in with the same crazy animations. I even tried to get the program to crash by pressing a bunch of buttons and it is solid. I'm very pleased.
