RGB - Color Correction      

Started By  Tom
Hello everyone,  is there a way to 'calibrate' the color of RGB (and CMY) fixtures. I currently got RGBL fixtures where the Output Color on my Screen doesn't match the real Fixtures color. For example, the real fixtures output is a Cold White and on my monitor it's way to green. I am aware that every display has a different color setting and it wouldn't really help to change the fixture in the capture library.  So, is there a way to change the hue and saturation of the different ...

Making a Custom LED Strip      

Started By  Justin
I am in Capture 2026, symphony version, attempting to make a circular LED strip. In the 'What's New in 2026' document, there is a 'Bezier Curve Spline Editor' mentioned that I do not see available. I am assuming I would need this for custom shapes. Has anyone else ran into this issue, or, rather , is there a different menu I should be looking for

Asset Instancing      

Started By  ben.garcia@dbsolutions.com
Hi all, Does Capture support instanced assets Whereby I have many copies of 1 mesh, which allows the GPU to draw all copies of the instance more efficently than each copy of the mesh individually. I have a chainlink mesh which is drawn in blender, is about 9000 copies of the same 200 polygon shape. Super efficent when instanced, 2M shadow casting polygons if not instanced. Same goes for my venue chairs.

2026 Bezier Curve questions      

Started By  Paul Schuh
Is there a trick to selecting the end of a LED Strip to work with the bezier curve function  I am not able to select one of the ends if I am viewing the strip from the side - have to reposition view so I have some width to the end of the strip before I'm able to select it. Also, is there a way to add control points to the LED strip for more control over curve

Surface justified positions?      

Started By  Colin Bone
Is there a way to create an item and locate it in 3d space using a specific surface as the reference or anchor point For example,  just quickly be able to create a form and it be whatever dimensions but I know I want it's bottom surface to be 3m from the stage floor. Currently I have to do height=3m(0.5xBoxHeightDimension). I'm hoping for an option to be able to just select lowest part and set height 3m. Basically I want to be able to 'surface justify' like you can left or right justify...

Centre the rotational anchor      

Started By  Zherit
I have a model imported from Vectorworks via MVR and in doing so it placed the rotational anchor very far from the object. Is there a quick way to re-centre the anchor on the object I have selected  Manually repositioning it onto the object is a) inaccurate and b) a pain in tha backside I am looking for a one shot 'centre to object' or 'centre to selection' option which holds.

Modeling a RGBI LED strip      

Started By  Jos Verlinde
Hi, I'm working on a model of a theater that has a fixture installed that I cannot find in Capture 2023 . In the lighting sheets it is referenced as a Color Connectix RGBI 4 channel fixture. It is a 10M fixed led strip  with a narrow lens used to illuminate the backdrop from the top. ( Something like a graze)  I do not need a perfect match - but have not even been able to find something remotely similar , with the same DMX control. I have looked at the LED tapes , but I could only find ...
