Controlling Lights & Eye Patterns

Lighting in PropPal is three separate, deliberate actions rather than one combined control. Here's how they fit together, plus how eye patterns work.

Steps

  1. 1

    Pick a color

    Choosing a color alone doesn't change anything on the prop yet. It just sets what the next action below will use.

  2. 2

    Tap Set Color to hold it

    Applies the color you picked as a solid, steady light.

  3. 3

    Tap Cycle Colors for motion

    Makes the lights continuously rotate through colors instead of holding one.

  4. 4

    Tap Lights Off when you're done

    Turns the lights off entirely.

Which lighting effects are available depends on your specific prop. Some models also support Strobe and a gentle Pulsing effect in addition to a solid color, while others (like the 12ft Skelly) currently support a static color only. PropPal only ever shows the controls that actually work for your prop.

Eye Patterns

  1. 1

    The gallery is matched to real hardware

    Each picture in the eye pattern picker was matched by hand against real props, so what you see should match what lights up.

  2. 2

    A mismatch usually means a different model

    If a pattern doesn't match what's shown, your prop model may number its patterns differently than the one PropPal matched the picture against. This is a display mismatch, not a malfunction.
