So if I'm understanding that correctly, for a lighting device for which I cannot see the modes I use (eg ETC source 4 series 2 lustr, a range of modes with a plus 7 option) the following workflows are my options.
I have to either: make my own symbol for each mode; or set the fixture mode to "none" and manually adjust the dmx footprint. Is that the case ?
Is there then a straightforward way to elegantly get the fixture mode into paperwork, alongside other heads with modes in the VW database ?
I guess a big issue will then be using the head in vision (but that last part is less of an immediate problem for me).
