Edit Fixture in Patch

I used to be able to change what the default colors in the color wheel and gobos in the gobo wheels were in the edit fixture window in patch per fixture, so that they would appear correctly in auto palettes or on the color/gobo buttons while programming. Especially helpful, when there is three gobo wheels, and the default on each gobo wheel is gobo1- gobo6. Now I have to go back and figure it out in the pallettes and remember what is what for the short keys. Did this change between versions or is it located somewhere else?

  • Matthew,

    You can still change these settings in the edit fixtures window, but there is currently a defect open (#6832) where the window won't show you all of the appropriate column.

    Try this:
    Open the Edit Fixtures window.
    Click to turn on Sort By Function.
    Jump to Gobo (or one of your other slotted functions).
    You should be able to scroll to the right to edit the slot names.

    If you don't see the columns that show you the individual slot names, try clicking on a different fixture type in the left pane and then click back to the fixtures you want to work on.

    Another note:
    You always want to make sure that your default value for a slot is actually slot name that exists for each fixture. Having an invalid default value can cause errors. We are working to enforce this better to prevent problems.
