Effects
The following pages of the font wizard, from “Tag Effect” to “Lockup Effect”, have all the same
structure. They allow you to assign an effect to each event. See
the events that you can assign effects to.
An effect is a collection of sounds and lights, packed together as a single entity. On your
computer, effects are stored as
.peff
files, which contain both the light sequence and the sound
files. For details about creating and editing effects, see the
On each effect page you can load an effect from your computer, test it on the saber or edit it
using the Effect Editor. With “Clear Effect” you will remove it from the font.

If you accidentally cleared an effect but did not write yet the font to the board, you can do
the following: go to the “Font Selection” page, select another font and then select again
the font you were editing. This will restore the font exactly as it is on the board.

If you want to use in your font an effect from another font, you can do the following:
(1) Select the font where the original effect resides.
(2) Go to the effect page and click on “Edit Effect”. This will open it in the Effect Editor,
where you can use the “Save” button to save it on your computer as a .peff file.
(3) Close the Effect Editor, go back to the wizard and select your font; you can now assign
the saved .peff file to any effect: go to the effect page using the navigation panel from
the left side of the wizard and press the “Load Effect” button.
