vertical booms in plan view and 3d view


Recommended Posts

Hello Justin; these days when i want to portray a boom in both 2d and 3d i construct a hybrid symbol that reflects both of those views to provide graphic information, but i attach no record to the symbol so that it can't be included in any counts or any data exports. i have not, however, attempted to use these symbols to project any light or gobos. HTH, shelley

I basically do the same thing. I'll draft the plot with the boom layed out so I can see the information on the plot. Place this boom in class A. Create a second boom drawn correctly in 3D and place it in Class B. I tune off Class A or B depending on what I want to see.

Sometimes I'll insert just a 3D symbol, other times I'll create a special instrument symbol or position so I know not to count these extra instruments.
