Create a new Live page using the existing Fixtures in Editor

Post by DJHumble »

This may be a very software 101 question, but I am stumped.

I have created a lightshow for one venue, using about 20 fixtures. Let's call it Lightshow A. I have my fixtures programmed just how I want them and my LIve page designed just how I want it. Now I want to go to another venue and create a new Lightshow (Lightshow B) but use the same fixtures and fixture settings (dmx address, reverse tilt, etc) from Lightshow A. My problem is, when I select FIle and click on "New Lightshow" it wipes everything clean. I can't find a way to export my fixture page/settings only, or a way to just start a new, blank Live page without clearing out the fixture page, as well. Do I have to start from scratch and rebuild my fixtures each time I want to create a new lightshow and Live page?

Thanks!
Justin

You can duplicate the lightshow folder. Then, in the duplicated lightshow:
- delete the file "../Live/live.ini" to have an empty Live screen
- delete all .sce files in "../scenes/" to delete all Steps scenes
