I’m having an issue loading a demo file from X-lasers. Pretty much the fixture library is wrong for the Skywriter HPX M-5 so I contacted X-lasers and they sent me a show-file that works but as soon as I edit it or save it it wont open back up. I wished there was a way to extract the fixture types inside that show so i could load them to any show rather than trying to get this demo file working. Not looking good.
Hitting export in the Fixture Library Editor didn’t work? Or they could hit export and export their correct fixture profile and send you it and then you could hit import…
As @TheatricallyJerry mentions, it is possible to export fixture files from a show file. To do this, load the show file into ONYX, and then go to ONYX > Menu > Overview > Show Info > Fixture Library Editor > Export > User Library > select your fixture > Use Fixture Type. You can then save the custom fixture file to a file, which can then be imported into a different ONYX system.
If you cannot load the show file, please email it to support@obsidiancontrol.com, and we can then investigate why it is failing to load.
If you have encountered an issue with the Skywriter HPX M-5 fixture, it would be really helpful if you could submit a description of the issue in the following form…
ONYX 4.6+ Fixture Requests
Once submitted, our fixture library team will then be able to investigate.
