Hi, I currently use Wysiwyg and was thinking of moving to Capture. First I have some questions. Can Capture tell you the total power used by the lighting rig and create other power reports ie. Total load per circuit I can see there is a power rating for fixtures in ‘Equipment reports’ but no mention of power in the fixture properties. Would you have to do this yourself by exporting to MS Excel Can reports be created showing weights for individual trusses or areas Can anyone show me an example...

can you set dmx control for the brightness of a video player or the screen it is showing on

Hello, we are designing a set that has a couple of truss arch sections, 4 metres wide. Is there anything like that in library, or anyone got any tips how to make something like this Is there anything like this in the library, or anyone have any tips on how to make one Cheers

Any tools or tips for drawing starcloth

Hello Capture Team,Hope things are going welll! :)If it's not possible to show focus notes of fixtures in Fixture Reports, can this be added in future releases of Argo, Atlas and Nexum It would be nice to carry the report while doing a focus call of a rig, or having electricians rough a prefocus before flying pipes out to trim.ThoughtsRegards,Johnny

I would really like to be able to import floor plans (in pdf) to start plotting from there. Could this please be made possible, or is it already and am I missing somethingFor me this ws the default way to work in Vectorworks. Am having a great time discovering Capture Atlas, but really need this option to draw.......

Hi All,Is there a way to stop an object snapping to another object in Nexum I'm sure there was a setting in older versions where you could set a time delay after you stop dragging an item (but still holding down the left mouse button) before the snap function activated.I've tried pressing Shift, Ctrl or Alt when dragging but that doesn't help.Thanks,Robert

In searching the file structure (PC: C:\Program Files\Capture Nexum Student Edition\Library\_LightingFixtures\Chauvet\PARs) I found many fixtures and one in particular I need. I'm having trouble finding instructions how to get the fixtures I have found added to the console so that I can incorporate them in my layout.

Hello Everyone. if you check 'show dimension' in the propertis of a truss, in the plot view the lenght of this truss is shown, but the box is very very small and if you have a big setup you wont see nothing. is there any way to get this number bigger thanx.

Hi All, I have just started to learn Capture and finding it mostly intuitive except for one thing...Truss. Whenever I am moving a piece of truss about it tries to snap to every piece of truss except the one I want - is there a way to select the truss i want it to connect to Example - I have 2 x 4m truss, one above the other and i need to add a corner to the top truss, however, everytime i try it snaps to the bottom truss. Thanks in advance.
