bryanlux Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 How do you make the Instrument Insertion tool the default symbol insertion tool rather than the 2D insertion tool? That would save a lot of headache right now. Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I don't think you can. It would be a great wish list item: Double Clicking a Lighting Instrument symbol choose the Instrument Insertion tool by default. Quote Link to comment
Jim_Allen Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I agree I have never figured out why this hasn't been the default. I guess people want to be able to place 2d/3d icons that are not instruments, but the reason escapes me. I am sure we will why. Quote Link to comment
johndpalmer_ld Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I will place 2d symbols into the Symbol Key and Legend. I don't like the way VW generates the Key, so I make my own. I place as a 2d symbol so it doesn't get confused with my export to Lightwright. The issue that I am finding with 2009 is that when I go to insert an instrument for the first time when I start, the tool defaults into "pick-up and make active" mode. Once, I switch to insert, I am fine for the rest of my session. Take care, John Quote Link to comment
