Graphic Legend Creation

[Cristiano Alves]

 

From what I see, we can currently use the powerful tool "Graphic Legend" to create a myriad of legends and choose the objects we want to include in the legend and sum their units.

 

 

 

Questions

1. Is it possible to use the graphic legend to obtain a legend of this type for rigging material with an associated image?

Note: For trusses, it may not be as relevant, but for a corner accessory (or any other), instead of providing a list only with names and "references", it would be good to also provide an image that identifies the geometry of the accessory.

 

2. Is it also possible to generate a report listing the type and number of motors?

 

 

3. Could the stage decks created from the "Spotlight -> Event -> Create Stage" tool also be added to this legend?
In this case queue have:

 

Graphic Legend Layout:

 

4. How can I reduce the height of the lines or manipulate the size of the images?

 

 

5. It would be interesting if the data visualization configuration also affected the legend with the defined colours, is it possible?
Now I need Add this double information:

 

 

 

 

6. How can I add more information to the graphic legend, such as the mode in which the lighting fixtures should be?

Edit the Cell Layout + select the 'rectangle' that surrounds the cell: it's called a 'Frame in Graphic Legend' + you can edit the size of the margins in the OIP to make it bigger/smaller:

 

 

To edit the size of the images you need to open the 'Define Legend Image' dialog + edit the scale.

Someone else will have to help with the Spotlight-related questions!

If only we could define the specific size of the frame. I use the GL to show scenic symbols and it is a huge PITA to get a uniform size when the GL might be refereeing multiple Viewports.
