- | ====== LedTeix - Main window ====== | ||
- | |||
- | With LedTrix it is possible to control an animated image and a text at the same time.\\ | ||
- | It is basically possible to select an image, enter a text and control the intensity, speed and so on, of the two parts separately. | ||
- | |||
- | The output to the matrix can be monitored in the “Preview” window. | ||
- | |||

- | ==== Text ==== | ||
- | Text entry is to enter text.\\ | ||
- | Text Font, Style, Font Size and Color can be set.\\ | ||
- | |||
- | No text is displayed before pressing the “Set” button | ||
- | |||
- | Note: At this time sizes smaller than 10 are not set / scaled correct. | ||
- | |||
- | There are a direction control. This can either shift the text from “Left to Right” or “Top to bottom”\\ | ||
- | If the text direction is shifted when it is running then it will hold the position where it is shifted.\\ | ||
- | In the example above the text will start with 9 and count down.\\ | ||
- | If direction is shifted when only the part “2 1” is displayed then it is only “2 1” that will be in the display | ||
- | |||
- | The position is rest when the text is set again. | ||
- | The example above will be centered around “5 4” when the direction Top to bottom is started. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Macro ==== | ||
- | As written in the panel “Hold SHIFT and press a button to record current settings”. \\ | ||
- | When a macro is recorded the F number becomes bold.\\ | ||
- | The macro will also be present after the Freestyler has been restarted.\\ | ||
- | |||
- | Button can be saved and erased by “right click” on it. | ||

- | ** Faders** \\ | ||
- | There are 2 faders “Master Image” and “Speed” | ||
- | |||
- | ** Fade in and Fade out.**\\ | ||
- | Is an automated way to fade in and out the image with a fixed time rate. | ||
- | |||
- | ** Play / Pause ** \\ | ||
- | This is used to start and pause the animation. | ||
- | It is also used to restart the animation after “Tap” has been used or after the setup menu has been closed. | ||
- | |||
- | ** Tap ** \\ | ||
- | “Tap” is used to step the image frame one by one. Each time “Tap” is pressed the next frame is shown. | ||
- | |||
- | ** Inverse Image Check-box** \\ | ||
- | The inverse invert the colors of the image. It is only the image output that are inverted (See Preview window) not the image in the LedTrix main window. | ||

- | ** Fade in and Fade out. ** \\ | ||
- | Is an automated way to fade in and out the whole matrix with a fixed time rate. | ||

- | ==== Image general ==== | ||
- | All LedTrix images are located under the pluin. | ||
- | |||
- | It is possible to remove images that you never use or you can generate you own animation gif and then copy it to location above. | ||
- | |||
- | A program like GIMP 2 can be used to make animated gifs. | ||
- | |||
- | It is worth to think of the size of the images because today only 512 dmx channels are available and that limits the matrix size to 170 points or 13 x 13. This means that it is unnecessary to generate a images of more hundred pixels.\\ | ||
- | Most of the images in the animation folder has size 20x20 or 40x40 but some are 6x6, 10x10, 15x15, 8x14.\\ | ||
- | As it can bee seen in the figure above only the center of this 20x20 image are displayed on the matrix. | ||
