It's funny that you say that; these screengrabs are from the Spiderman plot. @Alex: I can't find them in my default libraries. Are they from the ETC file? Would this be a problem associated with moving straight from VW2010 to VW2011?

It isn't those...I doubt that they are part of VW's stock symbols. VW's symbols are incredibly simple compared to these.I've also looked through SoftSymbols many times, because they are the major return that I get when I try to search for VW symbols on the internet.

Hello: I've been looking everywhere for these symbols, and I cannot find them. At all. Can anyone help me find a source for these symbols, or will I have to somehow make them myself? I've seen them all over the place, in just about every professional plot that I've found.

Great! Thanks; I also discovered that typing "ShutDown" into the command line works. Is the software and the 3D visualizer compatible with Mac computers?

I've downloaded the GrandMA2 PC program, and I've been playing around with it for a while, but I haven't been able to figure one thing out: How do I close this program? I can't click on the red X in the corner of the window, and I can't find an option in the Setup or Backup menus (or any...

Is there anything lighting-specific that would make a Mac more useful than a PC, or a PC more useful than a Mac? Is there anything that I would need to do in college and in my career afterward that cannot be done on a PC or on a Mac? It doesn't seem that way to me, as Lightwright and...

PSUs from X manufacturer will not work properly with scrollers from Y manufacturer, correct?

I downloaded the ESP Vision demo to check it out, and I've run into a problem: It seems "Vision" is invisible. All that I get is a white screen with the ESP logo in the bottom right corner. What am I not doing/doing wrong?

Okay, so the "barn door tabs" are tabs FOR barn doors? When I read that on their site, I thought that they were tabs with barn door leaves attached.

Hi: I need to put half hats and Chroma Q scrollers onto a couple of instruments. Which accessory do I need to do this?

The Mac300 has a slow/fast option in its menu; though the problem seems intermittent it might help to check and see if this is set to the fastest mode you can get it.

Thanks; I'll try that the next time I get a chance. Also, is there an equivalent on the HogII to pressing [About] [Enter] on the Express? Some sort of informational screen that will tell me the statistics of the show file (Number of cues, number of cue lists used, etc.)?

A friend of mine asked me this today, and I couldn't figure it out. When programming, is it possible to select a single fixture and release just that fixture, sending it to its home but leaving the rest where they are programmed at? [Release], even when combined with the [Pig] key always...

I think that I saw this when I saw South Pacific on Broadway...whenever they needed something large moved offstage, the ladders (which were built like cages to protect the lights) were flown out of they way. I thought that was interesting.ay.

How did you do this?
