Lightwright data exchange issue. German/UK VW Universe/Address issue


John Nowell

Question

 

I’ve got a couple of problems with a file produced with a German copy of VW.

In Spotlight Preferences I’ve changed the Lighting device parameters to my custom list in English.

 

My LW data exchange is only working in one direction. VW to LW.

I’ve run a test on new VW and LW files made with my UK VW and that works fine. 2021 SP5

 

The Universe/Address field no longer appears in the Label Legend Edit fields attribute list.

 

@lightwright  Any thoughts?

I would start by reverting to the Spotlight default parameters to make sure you are working with the correct fields. We use the internal names of the fields to determine the universe and address fields that are sent to/from LW.
Universe and address are special fields and theses fields must be used when exchanging the data.
