-====== SunTriX and LedTriX - How To ======
-===== Introduction =====
-SunTriX and LedTriX are both matrix plug-ins for Freestyler.\\
-These plug-ins allow you to create nice and attractive effects with a large number of fixtures (dimmer channels for SunTriX and RGB fixtures for LedTriX)
-===== Setup =====
-Before you can start using Suntrix and Ledtrix you must configure the addressing of the channels.\\
-  - Click “Setup”
-  - First set the matrix dimensions
-  - You can use the automatic addressing mode or you can set the addresses manually (just click a cell and start editing)
-  *     Startaddress: First RGB or dimmer channel of the first used fixture
-  *     Every … ch., skip... ch. : Only RGB and dimmer channels are needed all channels in between must be skipped.
-  *     Example: if your RGB fixtures have 5 channels (the first 3 are RGB) then you must skip 2 channels every 3 channels.
-Once the addresses are set you can start using SunTrix and LedTrix.\\
-==== Fine tuning: spacing and offset ====
-Spacing : Used to spread the fixtures over the animation\\
-Offset : move matrix start position (top, left by default)\\
-===== Using SunTriX & LedTriX =====
-Suntrix and Ledtrix have two layers: an animation layer and a text layer both with intensity and speed control and one master intensity control.\\
-All settings can be saved under a macro button\\
-- Animation: click an animation from the list, the animation starts to play\\
-- Text: Input your text, color, font and click set.\\
-- Set speed and intensity\\
-- Press “Shift” key and press a macro button.\\
-- Recall a macro with the F1...F12 keyboard shortcuts.\\
-===== Custom animations =====
-Animations are standard non-transparent gif animations.\\
-Copy your .gif files in the animation directory (\Plugins\Animations and \Plugins\Ledanimations)\\
-Suntrix automatically converts colored animations into grayscale.\\
-===== Note =====
-All the above information is from the **Suntrix and Ledtrix howto.pdf** that can be found in the FreeStyler install folder.
