Gobo Editor

[DMX512]

Why are not all gobos in the beamshape palettes window (Frog2) even though they are assigned in the fixture tool

[impat]

good question, it had also already tried using the editor, no results.

I also can't get the gobo icons to load in either Phantom ZerOs or my Leap Frog 48

Icons load properly from the factory fixture library

 

Also when I use auto palette the beamshape page is blank and the color palette page has duplicate colors and they are out of order

 

Any ideas

I figured out how to add gobos in the fixtures. Do the *. jpg files are stored on the desk or will they file in the *. ift?

Hi all,

 

There are a few rules in the ZerOS software that determine how auto-palettes are generated.

 

For Gobo palettes, the name must be 'Gobo n' where n is the number, and there is a space between Gobo and the number. The wheel must also follow the name GoboN<> for a rotatable wheel or GoboN for a fixed wheel, again where N is the number of the wheel.

 

For Colour palettes, the desk will generate 10 'fixed' palettes for use with CMY/RGB mixing fixtures, which are based around the basic colours easily achievable with these mixing methods. Any additional colour palettes, 11 onwards, are based on the RGB values assigned to the fixed colour wheels (name "Color N").

 

Once these are defined in the fixture types correctly, the gobo and colour images should be loaded for you automatically. Manually created palettes will display colour or gobo if they contain that information AND the fixtures that the information refers to are selected.

 

I hope this helps,

After another 5 or 6 tries I have the proper syntax and icon size (32 x 32 pixels)

All is working well

Thank you

 

Suggestion: Add updated details to the the "Fixture Editor User Guide Issue 2.0" to reflect the additions to the program.

After a few try's not still. I have a Fixtuere (JB Lighting P6), the pallets are also created in Create menu. Now I would like to add pictures of the gogos so that I get such a view

 

 

 

 

 

I tried 100 but the beam is always pallets only the text: Gobi 1 / 1 Gobo Gobo 2/1 ezt ...
