All I can use is U Address Field Dude what are you talking about? It's the same we always did. I just made this one from scratch, and the address field is in the label legend editor. I've learned not to include the Universe in the legend, and set spotlight to use universe labeling. so I get an address that is 1/101 in the address field. Quote Link to comment
Mike Starobin Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Mickey, I figured it out. I was working on a drawing created by someone else, in that drawing the address label was 58, not 12. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Mickey Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Yeah. 2018 has been giving me fits so far. I'm less than impressed. Older drawings especially seem to be an issue. Quote Link to comment

Could you explain where you can set this? And can you choose your delemiter there also? I’d be interested to use this setting. Quote Link to comment
Mike Starobin Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Sebastian, It is set/enabled in File>Document Settings>Spotlight Preferences... Then you get 3 tabs Lighting Device-you can edit each Lighting Parameter(These lighting parameters will show up in label legend to be selected and Object Info Palette-OIP) Universe-you can edit the Universes in the show or leave as Manual (how I use it, then have Lightwright manage my Universe settings) Lightwright- You can edit/choose what is exchanged with Lightwright I use Lightwright to display my universe settings, as I changed them often to reflect what I am doing. My issue was the original file had rearranged all the Lighting Parameters and I did not see "address" as number/layer parameter 58. Normally it is 12 Hope this helps, the Lightwright site has info on this subject also. Mike Quote Link to comment
Sebastiaan Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Thank you Mike. I Will check that out. Quote Link to comment
Ryan Seybert Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 @Mickey Anny chance you can provide a step by step on how to accomplish the 1/101 display? Been racking my brain and its getting pretty frustrating. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment
