Good day Andrew

Thank you so much for your help with the Light Symbols.

Here is a link to a post of a render with them in. The Atomic3000 and Crowd Blinder

Where did you get the 8 Lite Mole Symbol?

And why is it so hard to find 8 Lite Moles, 6 Lite Moles, 4 Lite Moles, and 2 Light Moles? These are pretty common fixtures and I feel like I can never find any of them. I am always making a crude symbol to represent them in a CAD drawling for a plot, but I never have time to make the symbol I really want. This baffles my mind.

I wish every manufacture would take the time to do what Martin did recently with every symbol for every fixture they have including the brand new stuff. It is really helpful. I'm not a 3D modeler and wish I had the time to be, but I do like to make nice looking light design plots.

I created the 8-Lite myself years ago. It was probably the first Symbol I made after the basic PAR can.

I saw there is a lot of useful tools on your plug ins page. Do you offer all the other lighting like the moles there that I can't see on your home page? I guess is, is there more that I'm not seeing? Or is there another plugins page that offer this. Vectorworks is kinda limited in Spotlight, I feel.

The only tools we offer commercially are on the plug-ins page (http://www.landrudesign.com/VWPlugIns.htm). The few Symbols available elsewhere on our site are simply old examples that, quite frankly, haven't been touched in years.

If you're wanting lighting Symbols beyond what you're finding in Spotlight, I'd suggest signing up for Service Select (http://serviceselect.vectorworks.net/), which will get you an expanded library, and/or or get SoftSymbols (http://www.fieldtemplate.com/soft/softcopy.html), which is the most complete lighting Symbol library available.

If you're wanting other Spotlight tools (beyond Symbols), you'll want to check out AutoPlot Tools For Spotlight (http://www.autoplotvw.com/) and the tools from Benghiat Lighting (http://www.benghiatlighting.com/software).

I hope this helps.
