xlights/nutcracker version 3.0.22 released

[smeighan]

version 22 is released


3 changes in this version
1) Brightness slider now goes to 200%. This will help with dim movies.
2) Removed Gauge that was next to export button. Gauge doesnt work on Linux correctly.
3) New button to randomly create effects for your sequence. Thanks Frankr for these feature


Because this does have a lot to explain, i have made a 15 minute tutorial on the random effect generation.

And following are some effects that I mentioned in the video. You should be able to copy these into your sequence and get the same effect


thanks

Hi Sean, maybe I already said this to you by email but I will say it again, thanks for your hard work giving us a free tool to make our Christmas lights more "blinking".

Regarding these effects:

Bars,Tree,Average,ID_SLIDER_SparkleFrequency=200,ID_SLIDER_Brightness=100,ID_SLIDER_Contrast=0,ID_SLIDER_Speed1=16,ID_SLIDER_Speed2=11,ID_SLIDER_Bars1_BarCount=3,ID_CHOICE_Bars1_Direction=down,ID_CHECKBOX_Bars1_Highlight=1,ID_CHECKBOX_Bars1_3D=0,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_1=0,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_1=#8000FF,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_2=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_2=#FFFF00,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_3=0,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_3=#FF0000,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_4=0,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_4=#00FF00,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_5=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_5=#0000FF,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette1_6=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette1_6=#FF8000,ID_SLIDER_Tree1_Branches=3,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_1=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_1=#FF0000,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_2=0,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_2=#00FF00,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_3=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_3=#0000FF,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_4=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_4=#FFFF00,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_5=0,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_5=#FFFFFF,ID_CHECKBOX_Palette2_6=1,ID_BUTTON_Palette2_6=#000000

How to use them? cut and paste I guess, but where I suppose to paste that code.

Cheers from Venezuela.
