MAC 700 Ext profile change (lamp power)

Hi,

Running 1.9 released code, I see the 400W option for all of the Mac 700 fixture types.  What version are you running?  Which fixture type?  If you open up the fixture editor and scroll to the Mac 700, is the [Update Library] softkey grayed out?

(As for your question about American English, we did have a UK version of Expression some years back, which put the "u" back in the word "Color" and replaced the "z"s in words like "Customize".  We don't have a UK translation for the Eos family, but it something that would be possible.)

Thanks,

Ann

Hi Ann,

My comment about being English was aimed at the forum options ;-)

I have checked the show file (produced by someone else) and the options ae definitely not there for lamp power and Update Library is white and selectable... I opened a new show file using offline and patched a single MAC700 and found the options were available.

I'll have to check with the programmer what he did. Is it possible he used an old fixture library?

It is very possible that the fixture library was changed since this show was written.  You might try saving a copy of the show, then pressing the [Update Library] key to see if the fixture regains that option.  There is a chance that it will also change something that you don't want changed, hence, the saved copy.

As for the forum options, that is not under my jurisdiction, sorry!
