-====== LedTrix - 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.\\
-The Setup window is described in: [[suntrix_and_ledtrix_how_to_setup_window|LedTrix: Setup 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”¨,“Right to left”, “Top to bottom” or “Bottom to top”  \\
-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.
-"Freezed" Is just an other way than Pause to stop the text from rolling.
-==== 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. **"F1"**\\
-The macro will also be present after the Freestyler has been restarted.\\
-Buttons 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.

-==== Image general ====
-=== ===
-All LedTrix images are located under the pluin.  c:\FreeStyler\Plugins\LedAnimations\
-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 freeware program like GIMP 2 can be used to make animated gifs.  [[http://www.gimp.org/|www.gimp.org ]]
-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.
