xLights Layout Design — The Foundation of a Great Light Show

The very first step in creating a successful light show is developing a proper layout. Every home and venue is unique, and to truly maximize the value of your lighting investment, you need a solid foundation to build your show upon.

That foundation is your xLights layout.

Our specialists at Your Pixel Store bring years of hands-on experience designing and refining xLights layouts that are accurate, scalable, and optimized for professional-quality sequencing.

What Is an xLights Layout?

Think of your layout as a painter’s canvas. The lights, props, and elements installed on your home or business are digitally modeled inside xLights. Their placement, scale, and proportions determine when, where, and how lights activate during your show.

If that canvas is skewed, out of proportion, or built with common layout errors, even the best sequence can fall flat—turning what should be a polished masterpiece into visual chaos.

Why Professional Layout Design Matters

A properly built layout ensures:

  • Accurate scaling and proportions

  • Clean sequencing results

  • Smooth transitions and effects

  • Better performance with purchased or custom sequences

  • Easier expansion as your show grows

How We Build Your Layout

Our team can transform just a few basic photos of your home or venue—along with details about your desired props, outlines, trees, matrices, and other elements—into a fully modeled digital layout inside xLights. This layout becomes the backbone of your entire show, whether you’re sequencing yourself or working with professional designers.
