Each Showstopper sequence includes a free Mapping Worksheet.  At first glance, you may think "What am I supposed to do with this thing?".  We try to answer that question for you in this blog entry.

Getting Your Group On
Most of the XLights sequences on this website extensively use the Group function in XLights.  Because effects can be displayed on individual models and to groups of models, how you group your models can affect how your effects are displayed.  If you are using a Showstopper Sequence, you will want to have an analog to the groupings used in the song.  To help you do that, I wanted to share how I group my display elements.
