Floodlight ReSize Error in Sequencer House Preview #4654

Open bayousidelights opened 1 month ago

bayousidelights commented 1 month ago

NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT ATTACH A SEQUENCE THAT DEMONSTRATES YOUR PROBLEM THEN THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY YOUR ISSUE WILL JUST BE CLOSED AND NOT INVESTIGATED.

Describe the bug My flood lights are single lines with one node and a pixel size 200. Every time I go to open a sequence after start-up, the House preview makes my floods significantly smaller. This only happens when I restart Xlights. Once I turn on Xlights for the day, I would have to increase the appearance size by 1 for each for it to fix itself. Then, I work on various sequences, which don't change when I switch sequences. But if I completely close Xlights, the floods will be small again, and I would have to make them larger again.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Open YouTube link that shows a visual https://youtu.be/aJe-_774Vbk

Expected behavior What I expect to happen is that my house preview in the sequencer tab should mimic my layout preview instead of altering the size of my floods.

Versions (please complete the following information):

I tried to duplicate it .. when reported here https://github.com/xLightsSequencer/xLights/issues/4087 Perhaps attach your layout to see if there is something in there that triggers it. (tools package logs)

I have mine set at 50 and blended circle. I just need to know they are there. Have you tried a smaller size?

I have the same issue. It started after an update about 2 years ago. I tried redoing them and replacing the model and it would still happen. I have attached 3 screenshot. One is the flood lights in the layout preview so you can see what it is meant to look like, then there is a screen shot of the sequence view and you can see the flood lights are barely visible. The third is a screen shot of the sequence view once you made a change to the flood model in the layout. As you can see, it resizes it. You can make the change in the layout by either increasing the size of the pixel, or unlocking the models and it automatically resizes the floods in the sequence view. I always just thought it was something to do with my laptop.

My layout can be found in any of my free sequences here https://xlightsseq.com/sequences/authors/danielrenwick.659/

Here is a better sequence to demonstrate the problem. It elimiates all the extaneous crap and just shows it looks great on the layout but too small on the house preview and too large on the model preview.

Same experience going back to 2019.
