Jimmy DV Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Hello, I'm looking for a Robe pickle patt symbol /model, so far I can only find the Patt 2013 and 2017. There is probably a way to scale down the patt 2013 but I couldn't figure out how to do that. On that note if anyone knows also how to rotate the yoke on the patt it will be awesome Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee JustinVH Posted July 20, 2018 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted July 20, 2018 Hello, If you know the dimensions of the pickle Patt you can use the existing geometry of the Patt 2013 and use the Modify>Scale Objects command and use Symmetric by Distance. Make sure that you are in the Edit 3D component mode and that you make sure to realign all of the parts properly as well as place the 3D loci properly. You will also have to redraw the 2D geometry to the new size as well. What kind of rotation were you looking to do for the yoke? That will determine the best way to rotate it. Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I have a Pickle Patt which is just a symbol just now, I'll happily share if you want to convert it to a Fixtrure? Shown here with sunstrips Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I did it anyway as I'd been meaning to get round to it un-tested etc Set the lamp to RGB 255, 214, 170 for a nice tungsten effect Robe PicklePatt 2017.vwx 1 Quote Link to comment

Have you used the ONE Patt yet? Am eager to hear about real-world experiences with those. Edited July 23, 2018 by mjm Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Thanks I've not seen the OnePatt yet, don't think there are any in the rental market around here Quote Link to comment

Shown here with sunstrips Hey there Mike; as you may have seen, in 2019 there are pre-built Robe PATT 2017s!! Huzzah! Having been pointed in that direction by Rob Books I think, I have placed them in a drawing and found that the filed & beam angles set as their default is 37º. I notice yours set to 94º field / 29º beam. How did you come up with those numbers? TiA, Michael Edited November 27, 2018 by mjm Quote Link to comment
Mike Wright Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Hi MJM I just used the photometrics form the Robe page Not a lampy so I'm not really bothered about the accuracy as we only really use them as eye candy https://www.robe.cz/index.php?type=10898&tx_odproducts_f[action]=downloadFile&tx_odproducts_f[file]=robe/downloads/photometrics/picklePatt_photometric_diagrams.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment
mjm Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Hey there MikeW, I didn't find Beam/Field angles on the website, so wrote you & then called the US office and they kindly emailed me the specs for both PATT 2013 + 2017 & Pickle Patt. DM me if that data is of interest. Quote Link to comment
