Storing Fixture Groups
Groups are selection shortcuts. Groups can be combined and
manipulated like all other selection sequences. It is convenient to save
groups of fixtures that are related by type, function, or hanging
position.
Automatic groups
Through the Generate Groups and Libs dialog box, Vector automatically
generates fixture groups.
The automatic fixture group options for spots per device, channels,
scrollers, matrix set devices, and media server set devices, are:
All
Even
Odd
Every third - counting from the first fixture of a device type.
Every fourth - counting from the first fixture of a device type.
You can choose to generate groups for some or all of the fixtures used
in the show.
