I'm probably a total noob and doing it wrong... there are a million trusses in the library but i cannot find a simple floor "base plate" object to attach a single fixture to. OFC i can just manually assign the fixtue to the "Stage floor" location but then i'd be missing the base plates in the show inventory / report. What am i missing?
With Capture 2022 you may choose the Base Plate filter available in the Truss category of the Library tab to choose from the ones available. If you are using a specific base plate that is currently missing from our library, you may send a relevant request to library@capture.se
I am also missing something generic, which I would not describe as a base plate but rarther or (low) floor stand.
Often this is a metal frame in an H-shape, to wich the G-clamp of a fixture attaches. As these things are generally custom build by the LX-team, they should be under Generic in the Trusses library.
Yes. This is what i'm looking for. A "Generic, low floor stand"
I've been unsuccessfully looking for this kind of base too.
Those pieces are not added to generic truss items (unfortunately) but rather to Light Emotion -> Floor H-stand or ShowGear-> Floor Stand. So if you look for either of those, you can add lights on the floor in a proper way.
