    Dear Capture Team,

    I was expecting exciting updates in Capture 2025, but pixel tape support still feels limited.
    Custom-length tapes require multiple texture generators, patching across DMX universes is cumbersome, and generators don’t appear in the fixture tab, complicating workflows.

    Please consider:

    • Native custom-length pixel tape fixtures

    • Automatic universe spanning for large arrays

    • Fixture tab integration for easier patching

    These enhancements would streamline complex LED designs and meet industry demands...
    I think most of designers here will agree.

    Thanks for your attention!

    A different approach could be to have texture generators throw light like a normal fixture.
    this way complex shapes could be imported from other software and converted to LED tape.
    Maybe add an option "convert line to LED tape" in addition to "Convert line to pipe"
    If this is technically challeging with multiple pixels, I think a lot of users would already be helped with 
    Custom LED tapes that omit light with just RGB, and no idividual emiters.
