  1. Hmm, I suppose it's time to try the user folder solutions others have offered above.
  2. Can you share a screenshot (s) to show us what the issue is? I've seen this once before, but the user had their screen rez set to something too large, and the dialog didn't fit properly. What resolutions are your screens? mine is set to 1920 x 1200 and 100% scale. Please also double check that the monitors are not overriding the resolution sent by your computer.
  3. It's not too difficult to make a new one via duplicating one of the old ones. Duplicate the 1000x500 and edit the 3D symbol shape. Then update the fields in the attached LED Wall panel record and swap all the instances of 1000 & 500 with each other.
  4. Yes, play with the ROE Vanish panels. We're working on supporting an Alpha channel and will explain more when I can. Transparent LED Wall test.vwx
  5. You did it all correctly, but missed one setting. Change the Bend Points in the record to 2 and you should be good to go.
  6. Please post a sample file so that the collective can take a look.
  7. Please post a sample file so that the collective can take a look.
  8. Please check again. You might need to rename the file when posting again. It's possible the system pointed to the old file with the same name. This grapple is not a truss object. Please consider downloading VW 2026. It's the version I'll be testing with. The bridle tools have had some major updates.
  9. Data is not fully supported yet and the cable will attach to any empty power circuit in a device. If you have both a power component and an input/output that you've assigned as an XLR connector, it will work... Provided that the power circuit is already occupied. The pecking order for which connectors are connected first is determined by the insertion/stacking order of the internal components.
  10. Hang on for a while. We're working on some improvements; when aren't we. I'm not sure it'll exactly help this particular workflow, but...
  11. PS, making these edits is much faster in a worksheet vs. the cable config dialog
  12. This is actively being worked on. Cables and cable sections have slack fields. For a breakout with 10' tails, put -10' (minus ten feet) in the slack field to subtract the tail length. This will remove all the unneeded jumpers that are less than ten feet. For staggered, you'd subtract lengths for each tail.
  13. The automatic functions of data use the breaker info. You can change these by editing the distro's 3D symbol breaker names and saving them in your favorites. I Keeping them unique will help avoid data conflicts. One catch here is that breaker #1 is shared and used by both the 120 circuit 1 and the first leg of the first 208 circuit.
  14. I would put the aisle object in a sub-class of the seating layout. This allows you to hide the aisle objects by itself and hides it when you turn off the parent seating class.
  15. I was just typing a reply. @Nikolay Zhelyazkov examined the file and figured out the LL thing. It's because of the reference symbol in the label legend. It has the connectors and all lights using it are adding them to each light. I changed out the reference image to a new light without the electrical components and reset all the devices by swapping them out with a new unit and back again. Once this was done, the lights maintained the correct connectors. Here's my test file. VWX Forums Cable Specific.vwx
  16. @Erik Koehler We've found an issue. Are you finding the connector changes when adding/using a label legend? I've found that if I do things with a label legend, I'm getting extra connectors listed in the power section. If you are finding issues without the label legend, please do the screen recording @Nikolay Zhelyazkov asked for so we can compare workflows.
  17. I don't think this applies to aisles. It's likely a generic edit dialog and would apply if you were editing a building slab. Though this could be a bug, I'm checking, it's likely that this is because the aisle is acting as a subtraction cutting object and not actually part of the seating section. The two may not know about each other when you're in edit mode. You can draw a new shape over the first, then delete the first, and then use the Aisle's Convert mode to convert your new shape into an Aisle object. This might depend on the unit tolerance you're using. It makes sense that a six-foot-wide aisle will remove a seat touching at exactly 6'. Think about the width of a saw blade on a piece of wood. The kerf needs to remove some material to make the cut. Remember that the seat symbol bounding box might be ever-so-slightly wider than you see and it's the bounding box that might be the cause. Uhm, understatement... It's on our list. Here's a tool by @michaelk you might find interesting. https://www.verysmallgroup.com/theaterow
  18. Rigging or Electrical? The easiest way is to open an existing cable style library file in the RM, make duplicates, and then edit them to match your needs. You'll need to make edits to the cable names and to the records attached to each.
  19. Please post a sample file so that the collective can take a look.
  20. Nope. You'll need to Once you've deleted all the items added when the schematic was created, you'll have a clean slate to try again using a larger grid space setting.
