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

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 ...

Started By  Floriaan
Can you please make a video tutorial on how to draw the new LED strips. I am curious to see how to easily draw common shapes like a perfect circle (or half circle) an oval (or half oval) or follow an existing guide line.

Started By  Floriaan
We are trying to accomplisch the effect of projected colours of stained glass. I've tried to do it with a frame (casts shadow) with panels (not casting shadow), that have a transparency in the material. This works, but does not take the colour of the stained glass, only the colour of the light behind it. I've also tried with a material that uses an alpha channel. This had the same effect. The only way I could accompisch what we are after is by inserting a gobo with the desired coloursha...
