Loving all the new features in Capture Polar, but not really gtetting the plot features yet. Specially how to change direction and colour of a fixture in a plot. If I put a view into a plot, but now want to make one fixture a different colour or change the direction of it to make it more clearly(but not change the focus in my live view), how do I do that. Maybe its time for a new tutorial on plots... Thanks
