lclew Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 I'm having a devil of a time trying to figure out why the draw beam function works for some of the new symbols that I've created and not others. I've followed the directions to the letter about how to create new lighting instruments, and what happens is that the symbol that I've been working on will draw the beam, but when I click to insert a another of the same new lighting instrument, it won't draw the beam. It doesn't give me "invalid beam angle" or anything. It acts like the information is getting processed and that a beam SHOULD appear, but nothing happens. I've even deleted the new symbols and started from scratch again. I've got the Z height, the focus area all set, the symbol isn't set at some funky angle from booms or anything... Can anyone give me some advice??? PS... here's an interesting bit: When I use the 2-D insertion tool and then convert it to an instrument, it draws the beam. when I just go directly to the instrument insertion tool, it inserts new symbol without the ability to draw the beam...
