Semi urgent.
Is there a way to automatically have a fixutre purpose label added to plot view?

Currently just showing universe,address and filter number. (the default I'll guess)

In plots, you can only have Focus, Filters, Gobo's, Optics, Unit, Wattage, Channel, Patch, and Unit in or around the fixture. You could always repurpose one of these. Otherwise, use a report with columns with channel/Unit numbers and purpose. In Capture 2024 this can be added to a plot, in Capture 2023 and before you can print this as a separate sheet.

Ah perfect!

Just tried using the Unit colum rather than purpose column and got exactly the effect I want.

Thanks!

If you are not in an urgent or semi urgent situation, you can always add this as a feature request ;-)
