When importing an MVR made in capture to GrandMA3, I end up with a lot of 'Grouping' objects which usually contain nothing, but sometimes contain fixtures depending on whether I have grouped them in Capture. Typically, I will make an 'LX Only' MVR file which ignores all the geometry and gives me just the fixtures so I can keep the showfile lightweight. It would be great to have a couple of checkboxes in the MVR output dialogue such as 'Fixtures only' and 'Ignore grouping' to speed up t...

Hi Again! So another useful feature would be to have be able to save userprofiles. For example; I always export , top view, side view, perspective view and front view of my stage. And inside I have a couple of different settings like 'Curren Day' information etc. Would be a timesaver and a to be able to load a preset for differens documents, and maby save favorite fixtures etc. And now to the Extended document part... So right now I have to export my plots to .PDF one by one.... An...

Hi! Thanks for the stream today Capture Team. One of my request got answered, But I want to give a bit more information about what I'am missing. I would like to link a group of fixtures to the position of an object (for example a truss), and then the fixtures will use the objects fysical value as it's origio. When dealing with trusses that are in an odd position, for example diagonal, I have to either start positon the fixtures on the truss in center, or just flex with it manually. Wh...

Can we get an entry for 'Production Manager' in the Project > Properties window

It would be great to have more pyrotechnic effects in Capture that the current flame/water/CO2 can't really replace. Le Maitre are one of the most used suppliers and implementing most of their effects would cover almost all cases, especially as lots of them are similar other than colour, time, and size, so I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to implement them using the existing effects as a sort of base. It would also be nice if we could get some sort of documentation around them for rigging, angl...

Hi Capture Crew! I have a request on the picture rendering topic. So when we store a «camera view» and want to render all the 4-5 camera views. We have to go to each camera view and render it. Would it be possible to make an option to render a whole set of camera views, so that we don’t have to go through all the stored views and render them one by one.

I request the possibility of displaying the Control Panel in wireframe view (perhaps in a custom view) instead of live view. This would make the live view clearer and with a larger visible area on single-screen computers.

I can only speak personally, but I am not familiar with the majority of fixtures and manufacturers in the Library.  Finding the right light therefore can be very time consuming and frustrating. Since all of the information about each individual fixture is already there (can't have a fixture without it), would it not be possible to have a pop-up window or some other way of viewing a fixture's specs without having to select and drop it into the model  Perhaps a right-click or hover over a fixt...

Certainly, the mirror function is widely used, but more for duplicating using mirroring than for repositioning in mirroring, which is the current standard. In addition to the current 'Mirror' option, please include a direct 'Mirror and Duplicate' option (with zero in x, y, and z, and duplicate pre-selected as well). Then we could have a popup to simply choose which axis to duplicate on: x, y, or z.

A request I would like to make, as it would certainly help users a lot: currently, the Reflection Plane tool only allows us to adjust width and depth. This greatly limits its usability, because we cannot apply it to surfaces that are not square-shaped, making it difficult to use on circular surfaces. I understand that placing a square plane over a circular surface would work, as long as the plane’s dimensions are larger than the surface. However, this creates a problem when there are two leve...
