Post by: smeighan on May 09, 2014,
Ver 3.3.7 fixes the "heartbeat.cfg file not found" error. This was a minor bug but we thought it would be nice to get out a fix.
Dan Kulp made the fix.

It's great that Dan is still around!! I haven't seen an update to xlights on the Mac since 3.3.1. I'm not sure if that's when you switched over xwidgets - not complaining, just saying great Dan is around still....I always boot up in windows for my development (saves me from being distracted with the other apps and I can really focus on sequencing!)

Thanks!! Just downloaded and did a simple little test of some scrolling text on my matrix and it worked like a charm!

Also grabbed  Glediator for kicks and was surprised to see it work on my first attempt :-)

I'm really excited to be able to start sequencing and playing around with my matrix. I'm going to need to find a bunch of "landscape" gifs and see what I can display on a 90x32 grid....if anyone has any suggestions let me know. Merry Christmas displays nicely, but I'm sure there is more than that I can do with that matrix  ;D
