Has anyone tried to create neon light?
The linear light emitter is only 24" long and even though you can stretch it it only emits 24" of light.

I would like to know how to do this. Thanks

Unless things changed with R6 you can't do it. I asked this question some time ago for the very same reason. Have you tried stringing a series of linear emmitters in 'series'?

Yeah, I gues that will have to do for now. It would be really cool if you could just sketch a line pick colors and stuff and it would be neon.

If you are trying to use it for signage you might just try using model text and making it glow. If it is meant to be decorative lighting then I'm afraid you might be out of luck.
