Preview Package

Hi there,

In the Media Picker i can assign images to my Gobo's, Colours, Prisms, etc. This creates a custom Preview Package. How can i copy this PRview Package to a USB-stick so ican use it on other consoles?

It won't let me copy it from the Preview Package folder on the console.

Thanks.

Preview packages are part of your showfile.

And that's exactly the issue. For example i have a Ayrton Kyalami which has 24 colors and 80 gob's or something. When i set the images for all those gobo's and colors it works for that showfile.

If i start a new show, patch a Kyalami, i have to set all the images again. If i could export the Preview Package separately and apply them in my new show that would be a lot quicker and easier.

Or maybe if i export my fixture from the fixturebuilder it should also include those images i set manually.

Looking at the GDTF format i think its logical to include the images within the fixture.
Are there any thoughts about how this is going to work in the future?

And when i add those images to my fixture and export them from the fixture builder, i add a Revision note (added images) and upload them to the library hub so everyone can enjoy nice images in the Media Picker rather than Gobo 1 thru 80 or Color 1 thru 24....

So in your case you'd want to merge the Kylami from your other show into your new show. Setup->Shows->Show Merge
