Hi,

i am using DMX C3 for a while, when i have to manage the alighment of fixtures in Stage View and i select fixtures and press Control M or F it does't works but pressing Control C it comes in Circular form. i try to use it on 2 differert compters but the same issue. Any solution?

Hello,

Have you tried this: once you’ve selected the spotlights, hold down Control + M or F, then click on a spotlight with the mouse, hold down the mouse button and move the mouse. This should allow you to arrange the spotlights in a row or at an angle.
You can also make the circle bigger or smaller by holding down Control C and moving the mouse.

I hope that makes sense.

Regards, Steff

Uhm I have to check it again when I have access to DMXC again, but as far as I remember it is not control + F or control + M but only F or M while you are using the mouse for the linear distribution / matrix.

Hi,
I've just tried that again.
It works with and without Ctrl.

Quote from Steff

It works with and without Ctrl.

Then it checks for the keys without control and that it works with it is just a coincidence. Thus, please use the ones without control because we will at some point in the future implement a general shortcut management and then the shortcuts without control will be used here.
