BenV Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Hi All, Question about Spotlight "Parts" Record. For a while now, I've been seeing Lens & Point field show up in the parts record as implemented by VWX. Are there any features of the program that utilize these record fields at this time? It seems that some fixtures have these fields implemented, while others do not. Other than 3d orientation/focusing to focus points, does the parts record any additional functionality - or is this for future use. Thanks! Ben Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) The extra records have been there for a couple of releases and have no function at the moment. I hope that with the new release of vwx in a week or so we will see their implementation. My hope is that in a Renderworks style (or maybe even OpenGL!!), they will provide a visual glow of the lighting devices’ lens as well as a way of providing a starting shape for the projected cone of light. ”Watch this space” I guess!

Charlie Winter Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Anyone discover updates to the lens & point function of the parts record in 2019 yet? Quote Link to comment
