Reversing channels in a group

[kevin]

With the large number of channels you get now with the use of pixels, and the common display using an up and down for megatrees, Has anyone came up with a utility to reverse the channel display in SE other than manually moving each channel individualy to rearange the channel order.  Just a simple reverse order sort.

 

Example I have created a large Matrix and every other row is reversed as shown belowl

 

1   2   3   4   5

10 9   8   7   6

11 12 13 14 15

20 19 18 17 16

 

Since these are all DMX channels the SE displays them as:

 

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

etc

 

I want to rearage the SE display of the channels to be in the display order not the chan order.

1

2

3

4

5

10

9

8

7

6

5

11

12

etc

 

There has to be an easy way to reverse the order in a group without moving each ch manually.  Large numbers, talking about 80 channels per group with 15 groups.

 

Thanks

Vegomatic can generate a config for you which does this.   You have a fold in your string so the return trip numbers are going the other way right?

I must be doing something wront in Vegomatic.  I setup with 8 strings with 80 RGBs and 4 folds (because I cant do  4 strings of 160 with 4 folds)  But it still gives me a 40C X16 rows which is what I need. Top Left with DMX and set Univ at 25 with continous.  I click on Save.

 

I then go to Export and and click on export LCC config file. When I import ch config into SE it creates the strings for me, but the Channel numbers are still in the order of the channel numbers not the display position (LED order).  I need every other string of channels to show the channel numbers in reverse.

 

What am I doing wrong.

I also tried to set it up with a single string of 160 with 4 folds but it wont accept anything lower than 2 stings, and nothing higher than 14 folds

Sorry  I forgot I had hidden that option since an upgrade to Marquee no longer required it.    I have exposed that option on a new release which you can get from my site 1.7.9  

Lets discuss via PM and I can change some other settings for you until its just what you need.
