Hi all. This has been on the back burner for a few years, but am finally trying to get it working for text effects. I have a “matrix” setup on my fence. It splits across 2 panels, each consisting of 19 strands, 9pixels high. The spacing between verticals is a bit longer than the wire length so i have a pixel nulled out in between each vertical.

Eg. 9 up -null1- 9 down -null1- 9 up -null1- 9 down… etc.

In xlights i have placed them as single strands, using the null pixel setting. My yard slopes so i have them tediously placed and measured out in my layout. I have started to look into a matrix shadow model but not having much luck to get it working. I can provide my layout if someone could possibly lend their expertise?
 
So i got text sort of working. Used the “Zoom” and “Zoom Quality” under Layer Settings-Roto-Zoom. Looks like i need more density to achieve what i want.
