Steve B. Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Two-fer tool never worked right and I doubt it's been fixed in V12. I simply draw in manually, faster this way and you get what you want, where you want it. SB Quote Link to comment
Rick Martin Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I have a lable legend named "two fer" that removes the fields that I don't want to see in ganged intstruments. Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 I don't really understand your problem. In a recent drawing I added channel info to the intrument/s and then when I pair/twofer the instrument by channel, it removes the individual channels from the individual symbol legends and puts the info within the twofer. (I have 11.5) Is that not what you want!!? I have to say I thought it was rather clever!! Mark Quote Link to comment
Rick Martin Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 The problem markdd is not with channel, it is with the other fields: dimmer or circuit being the obvious examples. Once you two fer two units, the two fer combines the two channels into one along the path of the two fer symbol, but the dimmer label, and other fields that would be common to both units, stays stranded on both units. My solution is to have a label legend that omits the other fields (again, dimmer or circuit are best examples) and then apply it to one of the two two fer'd units. Quote Link to comment
David Ormsby Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 I think the point is in the tool's name - it's the Ganging tool, not a Twofer tool. I have to guess it was designed to give clarity to a plot as to what lights are going to come up together - regardless as to how the hanging position is cabled. I to would like to have a real twofer tool - that would summerize the channel, circuit and dimmer - but for now there isn't one Quote Link to comment
