Hi,

in Plot View, there is no information of used Color-Filter (LEE in my case). The Devices are colored up, but there is no number near the Device. There is a Plot Style defined with Filter and Patch, but only Patch Number shows up?

Hi,

Colour filter (and some other) information will only be visible when using plot symbols with fixtures. In this case it would appear that your fixtures either lack a symbol or that you have changed the option for when to use plot symbols to "never".

Hi Lars,
thanks for your request. What did you mean with "using plot symbols with fixtures"? Where can I change the option use plot symbols to never?

Hi,

Fixtures have a property for when they are illustrated with a plot symbol and not. You will find it in the plot category of properties.

Hi,

You have highlighted the property in question on the image you have posted. However, I can also see that for whatever reason your fixtures do not actually have any symbol chosen at all. The way to fix that is to drag and drop a symbol from the library onto the fixture(s).

Hi Lars thanks for helping. That was the solution.!!

The Fixture has no Plot Symbol. I add a par can symbol from library and voila, the Filter number was displayed correctly. :)

I've imported the Showfile from Polar version. I think it was lost while the import process.
