  1. Hi all, I'm having an issue importing an MVR file out of Capture and into VW 2024. There seems to be no 'mapping' of the fixtures when I import in. I know the capture file is fine as it imports into Depense3 perfectly. I have also tried an MVR export out of depense3 but get the same thing. 

    Basically VW 'see' the fixtures as lighting objects and they all show up in the lighting viz and I can see gdtf files for all the fixtures in the resource browser but no actual fixtures appear. I have also tried replacing the gdtf files to no avail. 

    I've only just come across this as although I do a lot of work with MVR its all going out of VW.

    The cable path's behavior has changed since the cable path video was created, I will organize getting an updated video made for it.
    In the mean time the 2 main changes are that

    1. the ability to exit the cable path before its end is now controlled using a modifier key, hold (on PC ) Alt or (on MAC)Option
    2. Paths behave much better when you use a single path for each main loom, without connecting branches or multiple paths joined together.

     

    I'm also having issues with this with the modifier keys not working. Even on a very simple path.

  3. I've the same issue and can't leave the cable path when I want, running on a Mac with the latest SP I'm using option as the modifier key but its doesn't really work and I also tried on my windows machine and the same result. I was also looking at the cable tools instruction videos.

  4. Hi, my worksheets are now showing channel info etc and this is both using Image (the first column) and also Imagebydatavis. I came across this in 2022 but thought it had been fixed. The only work around I've found is to turn off channel/uni etc then update the worksheet then turn them back on. Is there a criteria I can add in to stop this?

  5. If you want to colour the symbol and all have the colour shown in in symbol legend you can right click on the object in your resource browser (once you have dropped the symbol onto your drawing then edit 2D info, draw a binding box around the symbol and change the line colour.  

  6. Hi all, I'm making up a data tag for video screen information and I'd like to add the trim height (bottom trim) but can't seem to find the right command to do it, alternatively just showing the Z axis would work just fine - does anyone know how to show this?

     

    Thanks

  7. Hi all, I'm drawing seating blocks over an imported 2d seating plan. if I draw a rectangle over say a block of 6 rows at 20 wide and adjust the space between to say 450mm I get a row missing. is there a way of dragging out the bounding box? I've tried editing the seats and copy and pasting a row in but its not worked.

     

    Thanks

  8. Hi all, I've an issue with a schematic view. I have a series of vertical pipe and bases made from an extruded circle for the base and a lighting pipe converted to a hanging position. In ISO the fixtures are hung correctly however making a schematic view in Right View the mole strip is correctly rotated but the JDC strobe is not and in Front View the JDC strobe is correct but the mole is not. Anyone with an idea?

  9. I've just imported both a Robe 600 LED Wash in mode 5 and Robe Spider in mode 10 from the GDTF website, they are shown as 37 and 123 channels respectively which is what I'd expect. On importing into VW the DMX count in the object info pallet is shown as 38 and 124...anyone with any ideas of whats happened here?

     

     

  10. I'm trying to attach a vertical pipe to a truss system so it both moves up and down with the truss structure and the pipe and any fixtures attached to it appear in the braceworks calculations. There are a few posts I've seen regarding pipes and half couplers, are there any basic rules with dealing with these things?
