Room ID Placement.vwx

[Layout Room Label]

Okay it seems like the "Create Objects from Shapes tool" is placing them in very obscure positions and I can't quite identify how it is selecting where to place them.

[Layout Room Label]

Is there any way to move where the Layout Room ID is positioned. It is inconsistent and overlapping so it is hard to read.

[Fixture emitter lamp glow]

Is there anyway to render the glow of the light emitting from the light fixtures using Renderworks or Redshift?

 

I have been modeling a glow surface that doesn't cast shadows and placing it in-front of the lens but that is very time consuming.

@Pochflyboy  sounds like you are trying to create a site model from a single mesh surface, is that correct?

Perhaps you should post the file so we can see what you are trying to do.

Yes from a single mesh surface. I thought there was maybe a tool I was missing to just create from the mesh.

[3D Poly to Site Model]

When I choose "Site Model from Source Data" it changes the 3D poly into a flat site model instead of retaining the 3D polys mesh.

[3D Poly to Site Model]

I have a 3D poly that I want to make my existing site model. I cant figure out a workflow. Anyone have an idea?

[LED Screen Light Emision]

That is great thank you!

[LED Screen Light Emision]

How do I make an LED screen actually emit light in renders?

 

It seems to not have any back luminance emitting from the screen in "REALISTIC SPOTLIGHT" renders. This seems to be true for television screens and projection screens as well. 

[Photometric grid w/o focus points]

How do I see the results of a photometric grid without having to add a focus point for every fixture?

 

I have 70 house lights that I want to see the results of brightness without having to dump 70 focus points in.

Unfortunately, it does not exist.  I just checked our files.

Well I know in the MEP tools there is receptacle tools and circuit planning tools that include the imperial symbols. These would be immensely helpful for AVL and to have in spotlight. Seems not fair to not have those in spotlight when they are SO important for the entertainment industry.

I will add it to our list of requests.  we try to do both units, since we are a world-wide company with users all over the globe.

I think "Power Devices Imperial" is already made, it just isn't included with spotlight which seems very odd.

[Power distro symbols]

Also why in the world are there "Power Devices Metric" but no "Power Devices Imperial" for symbols. That seems super odd to me and I am don't understand why I have to draw these my self when power is a super integral part of entertainment planning!
