String Lights and LED Strips
Two path-based light types: String Lights (festoon, fairy, or Edison bulbs strung with sag) and LED Strip (a continuous LED ribbon), each with its own Inspector controls.
String Lights and LED StripsString Lights and LED Strip are separate path-based light objects. String Lights distributes bulbs along a hanging run; LED Strip represents a continuous strip with its own technical and cost fields.
Draw a run
Open Lights → Linear Suspended and choose String Lights or LED Strip. Click at least two anchor points and finish with Enter or a double-click. Select the resulting object.
Configure the string
For String Lights, expand Path properties for Height, Sag, Bulb spacing and Bulbs. Cable shows the current bulb count. Choose Festoon, Fairy Lights or Edison in Fixture Style. Check the derived result when adjusting count or spacing.
Set string appearance and technical details
Use Light Color for Mode Rgb for a custom color or Mode Temp for color temperature, with Party Mode (Random Colors) when desired. Brightness is per bulb. Technical records watts per bulb, voltage, supply, control, support, cable type, circuit, animation and installation notes.
Configure the strip
LED Strip has its own Inspector. Set Context under General, then Color Mode under Light: Single White, Tunable White, Rgb or Rgbw. Set the offered temperature or strip color and percentage Brightness.
Record strip installation
Use the strip’s technical and installation fields for the actual product: strip type, LED density, watts per length, voltage, rating, mounting and light direction. Density, wattage per length and price per length follow metric or imperial settings. Concealed (indirect glow only) changes the modeled appearance.
Read quantities
The strip summary shows Path Length, Total Watts and Driver Size. The driver estimate includes 25% headroom and rounds up to a supported size. Check all product inputs and any explicit power override; the estimate is not an electrical approval. Price per length feeds the cost calculation.
