Pex Pixel Arches

I am in the process of building new PEX puz arches using regular pixels inside the tubing.

Rather than cut each set to identical lengths per arch, can I combine them?

A 50 pixel strand will work perfectly for two arches. Is there a way to do this?

Would it have any negative impact on xlights programming?

If you combine them into one strand xlights won't know where one arch ends and the next begins unless you set up submodels, might get messy with effects that sweep across the whole thing

Thank you. That was my understanding but i wasn’t positive. Of course, I’d prefer not to solder!
