Dispersion on -90deg tilt not showing up

[bjoerka]

I have a speaker (d&b e5) hanging at 7m, tilt is set to -90 degrees, throwdistance set to 7,5m and the dispersion hatch is not showing up.

Changing the tilt angle solves the problem, but only when i go to -83 degrees, from -84 the hatch disappears.

 

Known problem or mine ´cause i am doing something wrong?

 

specs like in my signature

Would you mind posting or DMing me a copy of your file?

I´ll send you a link to download the actual file via DM in a few minutes.

There is a saved view which brings you back  to my layers and classes settings when you are testing something.

2 things:
1)  Edit the speaker's Symbol definition and change "Throw 1" from "100 ft" to "100'."

2)  For each Speaker instance using that Symbol, either switch Symbols and then return to the E5 or enter "100'" in the Range 1 "Throw Distance."

 

The Hatch is not being applied because the Throw Distance you are using is shorter than the given dispersion lines.  100' is way more than you need but the tool will "trim" that automatically at your Listening Height.

 

I hope that helps.
