Artist Help:Redefine Fixture

From ShowCAD Wiki

During programming you may find that a more up-to-date, or more appropriate template should be used for the fixtures that you have already installed. You can use the Redefine dialog to convert your fixtures to the new template.

The template that you use to redefine the installed fixtures must have the same number of channels and in the same order as the original template. You will be prompted if there is a discrepancy.

From the Fixture Navigator tree, right-click on the fixture group you wish to redefine, and select Redefine. This open the Redefine Fixture dialog.

The List shows all the fixtures in the group. Check the ones you require to change - it is usual to change all of the fixture since it makes no sense to have a mixed group.

Select the template you are going to use from the tree.

Click OK to redefine all the selected fixtures. The fixture will retain their names and locations on the view.
