Legend Variables

Postby Ploeter90 » 23 Aug 2016, 13:17

Hi,

Are there any variables that you can use in legends? For instance i want to patch mulitiple fixtures of the same brand and model, the Martin MAC101. If i set the legend all fixtures will get the same name resulting in me searching for individual fixtures later on. So can i set the legend to something like "MAC101_%N%" where the %N% will increase by one?

No, there isn't anything like this in the software.

It would be very useful though. It's one of those things that sounds minor but would really speed up workflow where you want to number things sequentially. See #26139.
