In my capture 2020 project i hung some different laser fixtures. I control the fixtures from ETC nomad. I directly control the dmx addresses (so not choose a fixture from the etc library). So far I can only control the zoom of the lasers, not color, direction, image or any other parameter. I also tried it by using the fixtures from the etc library but this doesn't make a difference. 

Can anybody help me out. What do i do wrong?

Thanks Edwin

In order laser to be visualised in Capture, you need another application such as Pangolin Beyond or Lasergraph to send the laser data for Capture to visualise.

DMX lasers are only partially supported in Capture at the moment for conceptual design and reporting.

I also have DMX lasers I would like to visualize (at least simulate with some shifting gobos or something).  If there is anything Capture can do to support visualization of beams for DMX lasers, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem. We support some smaller tours with dmx-controlled lasers (Laserworld DS 3000 RGB Shownet). But we don't want to use Lasergraph etc.

It would be so great, if it will be possible in a nearer future to visualize some basic laserstuff in capture.

Thanks!
