Hi, Trying to build an H frame out of pipe and have a couple of questions: When I try and put a pipe at 90 degrees to the top of another it snaps to trying to continue it in a straight line, is there a way to turn this off When I put fixtures on to a truss/pipe and the magnet symbol is shown I had assumed that when the pipe was raised or lowered the connected fixtures would move as well but they don't, is there a way of achieving this Thanks, Simon

I've been using capture for some weeks already, and it is a bit frustrating trying to zoom in, as all the other keyboard combinations with the mouse work to move around, but I'm not able to use the mouse scroll wheel to zoom in, it will just turn the camera angle and have tried all the possible key combinations with that scroll function. I'm able to get the zoom to work, doing the pinch gesture on the trackpad, but won't work on my mouse.

When I log into my account, should I see the option to purchase the upgrade to Capture 2026, or is that not a thing yet

Hi, I'm working on a UWB-based tracking system (custom, sending PSN v2.03 multicast) and I've successfully connected it to Capture 2024 Symphony. What works: - Capture receives the PSN stream and displays the trackers - I can link a Motion Construct to a PSN tracker — the object moves on stage in real time What I'm trying to achieve: - Have a moving head fixture point at the Motion Construct as it moves — using the tracker as a follow/focus   target for pan/tilt - I don't need Cap...

I want to give an export of my Capture file (as presentation) to the video designers. I've set-up two NDI inputs on my own machine - one for each videoprojector. Is there a way to get this working on the computer of some one who does not own a Capture license (like you can do with sACN/ArtNet data)

Hi everyone, I'm a new user of Capture form France ; I'm working on Capture 2025 and I'm having an issue with 2D symbols in the Paper tab. I have a rigged scaffolding tower. When I use the default side view, my fixtures appear correctly with their 2D plot symbols. However, I need a 'Stage Left' view (the opposite side). To achieve this, I move and I rotate the camera at 180°. As soon as I do this, the fixtures lose their 2D symbols and revert to their 3D wireframe representation (isomet...

Hello, I'm trying to distribute/align a selection of fixtures from the center instead from a corner, but I don't know if it's possible (I tried some Ctrl/Alt/Shift keys combination). Regards

Hi, I'm working on a project where many of the fixtures are very close to each other, and at the moment the way the channels appear on the plan means there's a lot of overlap/it's a big mess. Is there a way of adjusting the channel location relative to the unit, its priority, its background colour, etc Thanks

Hi, I’m looking for the recommended workflow in Capture for creating a rear projection screen. For front projection, I usually use a simple flat object (or thin box) from the Library and set its width/height as the projection surface. That works fine. For rear projection, I’m unsure about the best approach: Should the screen be a flat object with a specific material / transparency Is an Image object preferred for rear projection use Is there a recommended way ...
