Import From Vectorworks: Data Missing

    Some important fields are not being transferred from Vectorworks to Capture using the recommended "Export lighting device data".  Color is one such omission.  i.e. L116 in VW's "color" field does not go to Capture. Capture uses "Slot frames" as a field to hold color data. So, I configured a field in VW called "Slot frames" copied the L116 into it, and again, no luck.  I also have a field in VW named "Groups" as does Capture.  But it doesn't transfer.  VW's "Position" does not input to Capture's "Location". Rename it to "Location" and still nothing.

    Re-inputting all of these fields manually would really slow work down.  I think I am missing an important step.  Can you set me straight?

    At the moment, during "Import Fixture Data" command only fixture model, XYZ coordinates and patching information are imported. Colours and Groups are not imported.
