exporting custom created profiles - as separate file, for have on memory stick

Hi Faina. 

Exporting fixtures can be done from any showfile with just a few steps. It might be counterintuitive at first since the Export menu only exports to non EOS Showfile file formats. Here's a quick rundown.

1. Do a filtered Showfile load on the showfile with the Custom Fixture already in it. Open > Select Showfile > Filter to Fixtures only

2. Delete all fixtures under "Fixtures" in Patch which you don't want to export (To keep things tidy) 

3. Save As > Save the showfile only containing the fixtures you want to export

4. Hop into your showfile where you want to import the fixture and do a filtered Import of only the Fixtures, like shown in step 1 (Filtered just for piece of mind. Even if you import the whole showfile it should only import the one fixture since the showfile is empty otherwise. Better safe than sorry.)

5. Patch the fixture which should now appear as a unused fixture in the "Show" tab of patch

Hope this helps.

That's a good description but in step 4 you will need File > Merge rather than Import.
