Hi

Since circuit, dmx address and fixture ID each have a seperate box, the fixture annotations really cluttering up the plot. Especially if you have a lot of fixtures in a narrow space.

It would be really handy to have just one box per fixture with all the relevant information within. The box may have the following customization and options:
- set the background color independent of the fixture
- set the outline color independent of the fixture
- get rid of the connecting line between fixture and annotation
- determ the font orientation within the annotation
- set font size and color for each information (circuit, dmx address etc.) individually

Thank you

Hi, I’m not sure if you noticed, but there was already a thread discussing this topic. It might be easier to keep it in one place.

Oh I was not aware of the other thread. Sorry for that.
Still good to see that I am not the only one struggling with the fixture annotations.
