Greetings, this may've been suggested before and might even be included in the recent update (didn't check, to be honest, but I didn't see anything like that...
Actually this was added in the last version. I don't know why it got missed from the change logs. In the case of the dmx the syntax is 2/5 dmx -23 Martin...
Martin, While we are on command line changes, I want to publicly beg for one of the changes to be removed, or at least have the option to disable it! "Changed...
Paul, this is common syntax in ETC and Strand boards and comes possibly from Broadway piano board traditions. Its much mor likely you'd ask for 50 than 05...
This was changed for consistency with every other theater desk on the market. The idea behind this is that you do not often need to set the dimmer to 5% but...
Martin, My theatre group just finished another show that was designed and run using LightFactory to great success. I was not the principal designer, but I was...
Yes, Bruce.... I agree with all that you wrote in this post. I've been noticing same things but hadn't figured out how to articulate them to Martin well....
Hi Bruce, Firstly the entire system would probably make a lot more sense if the backup/restore option in the system properties didn't exists. However there is...
Thanks for adding the option to disable this behaviour. I understand the principal, and no doubt in time using the new syntax, I would get used to it, and I...
Martin, I looked through the entries in this group and I didn't see any posts with a list of the proposed changes/features for V2 of LF. May I suggest you...
I just switched over from a conventional lighting board to a PC based solution and I'm having some problems with Light Factory. I've managed to get my moving...
Thanks Bruce, both of these features can be considered for the current version. Version 2 is primarily centered around changes to the core architecture of the...
There are 2 ways to do this in LightFactory... 1. You can create a 2 part cue and set the follow time of the second part to 0. Part 1 would have the...
Hi Martin, Slight thread hi-jack, but its related! Can the v2 engine patch base start at universe 1 rather than 0 ? Thanks, Paul ... current ... under ... that...
I'm having a problem with my Trackspot 2's. They are working great with Light Factory except for the shutter control. When I plug them in, they're always on. I...
John, Look in the patch window at the Edit Channel Characteristics button. That is a bit cryptic but I'm not in front of my computer so I can't go into much...
Hey Jeremy, I'm a bit confused as to how to change the Characteristics in that window. Do I adjust the red markers individually or do I just have to change the...
John, Whatever works. Best way to explain: when in LF, hit F1 to bring up the user manual, and look on page 221. That's way more clear than I could make it. ...
I'm getting an "Invalid Property Value" error whenever I try to add a new fixture to the library. The editor window comes up but the list is blank yet the...
This is a known bug in 1.3 related to the default image in the fixture editor. We are planning to have a service release available very soon. For the current...
We have just posted a beta version for 1.3.1. This is coming fast on the heels of 1.3 and is primarily a patch release to resolve a number of small issues...
Err, at the risk of asking a really obvious question in public, how do I enter a Cue Note? When I press the button at the right of the column I loose focus on...
This window is wrapped by our window management system. This means that the first time it opens it should appear in the center of the screen. After that it...
Martin, First feedback on 1.3.1... After installing, I'm still getting the following error message when "System Properties" is selected: WARNIGN! (sic) You...
When I create an effect with movement in the effects editor I lose my pan and tilt positions. Say I have 2 of the same fixtures on channels 1 and 2. If I bring...
