Pan tilt percentage instead of degrees moving from congo

Hi everyone,

I am trying to load a 2016 show made with a Congo on an ion xe, but the problemi is that Congo had pan tilt informations in percentage, Eos in degrees.

The file conversion tranfers "raw" numbers, so if 70% tilt on Congo pointed at center stage, 70 degrees on eos point on the backdrop.

I'read an old topic talking about a custom fixture, i tried to modify the range but didn't help.

Any possibility of recovering those positions? 

Thanks a lot

    I can't see which Eos software version you tried, but I can tell you what current behavior is (3.2.10 as of this writing).

    If you use File > Import > USITT ASCII > As Custom Fixture:
    The imported fixture profiles will also use 0>100 and the cues use the correct values (e.g. Pan=50 for home)

    If you use File > Import > USITT ASCII > As Library Fixture:
    The imported fixture profiles will be pulled from the library and use e.g. -270>270°. The cues will be adapted, so previous e.g. Pan=50% will now be Pan=0°.

    Thank you.
