Hello,
I use Capture for my own : presentations, reports, simulation, motion control, all that is very useful tools. But as soon as I have to send a plot to a venue, to exchange plots for a festival for example (plots that are a compilation of many Companies), I have to do the work again on a Qcad.
Because :
- On Capture’s plot in paper format (Capture’s pdf export) : we can see Gels filters and Patch and Channel for fixtures.
- On Capture’s plot in drawing format : on the plots the attributes do not figure, which is normal.
- On a Capture DWG export, opened with Autocad. : The view we have for the plot is the one of the drawing format : with no indication of gels filters and patch and channels. Of course for each fixture we can check the attributes.
BUT : those attributes are not written on the plot (eventhough the attributes are activ in Autocad parameters). So when I exchange with a venue, the technical director receive this plot, and it is the one he will print for the set up. And there is no fixture's information on it.
Basically : I would be interested to develop a way for having the attributes (gels and channels) that are on Capture paper plot on the DWG export plot. That would be useful.
Thank you for your feed back.
