I've been using 2008 for 2 months now on a pc with Vista.
I drafted my light plot for my last show just fine.
And now. . .
I'm having serious label legend malfunctions on my current plot.
I'm using a house plot for a theatre. I attempted to copy it and paste it in place into my plot with all the scenery in it. When I moved a light, or copied and pasted, ALL of the label legend information dissapeares in the body of the plot. It is still visible in the object info listing.
My dear friend discovered it may be because whoever drafted the house plot put the theatre into some of the "forbidden" label classes. Deleting the label classes and objects and bringing them in fresh fixed the problem for him.
On my computer, however, it's not fixed.
In a new blank plot, I created a brand new label legend and inserted a light and assigned it the new label legend.
Instead of displaying as a light with channel, unit #, and color, it is the light with the words "channel, unit #, and color" with the layout box as though I were editing a label legend.
Any thoughts?
Also, when I opened up old plots, they looked fine. But if I moved a light, the label info disappears. If I insert a new light, it comes in with the label legend editing box.
Hmmm?
