    Hi,

    SInce I've updated my license from Capture 2023 to Capture 2024,the automatic fixture location stopped to work as it used to.

    In Capture 2023 I would give a name in the unit field, for instance Lx1 for a piece of truss and every fixture attached to this truss would have the location Lx1 (in light grey) in the propertie tab. The location report would automatically sort out all the fixtures attached to this truss.

    In Capture 2024, I haven't yet managed to make the location report works as I used to when I start a project from scratch.The location field remains blank. 

    If I import a Capture 2023 project  in Capture 2024 it works.

    Am I missing something ?

    Thank tou.

    Let's answer to myself ...

    So it appears that in Capture 2024,the Truss propertie tab has a location field which doesn't exist in Capture 2023 and if I fill it the location report works just fine. 

    Is it something new in Capture 2024 ?

    You figured it out correctly. The properties menu of Truss parts in Capture 2024 has changed. We introduced the Location field so that users would have the same field name for truss and fixtures.

    Maybe it's a subtopic, sorry in advance...

    But with this change there is a workaround to use the «Sequential Unit» to renumber a batch of Trusses/Positions for the Location field?

    It's was very handy to use it in the anterior versions when the unit of a hanging position was the location.

    Unfortunately, this feature is not yet available, but it's on our radar to add it.
