Works fine for me. Someone recently also had difficulty and fixed by loading new personalities for the fixtures. I'm not sure why this is happening unless latest release has bad SG.DAT file?

IIRC shapes (and FAN) will make use of the order in which the fixtures were selected. Try selecting the middle ones first and work outwards. Experiment along those lines in combination with the spread and see if you can get the effect you want. I don't think you can select more than one group at a t...

It is quite easy to find a similar personality and modify it. For a 6 channel LED you could try Showtec LED type fixtures as a base. Given that this has a dimmer you would want to assign dimmer as HTP and the other channels as LTP (RGB onto the normal CMY will give options for colour shapes). The sy...

If you do ever experience problems with the board, a classic giveaway that there is no shapefile (when using 2004 builds) is shapes appearing in capital letters. 2000 builds this is normal, but 2004 should be lower case. Also, when loading a shapefile in the desk it is recommended to perform a soft ...

SG.dat contains the shapes, but won't be used unless you specifically load a new shapefile via System/utilities. The only reason fixtures might not work is if there were significant errors in their personality files. Obviously it doesn't matter. Main thing is you got it working. Just wanted to give ...

I'm not sure exactly where you were going wrong, but shapes are not defined in personalities.

For wheel speed hold [shift] (avo) and toggle through wheel response curves using numeric 2.

Don't know about locate value. This is defined in the personality file. Perhaps you could compare this to the value which does give z-axis straight?

By 'cue' do you mean a playback memory?
There is no way to automatically shift memories.

Erm? I am not sure.

Can you write a list of things you do exactly before you see error message?
