6. Selecting and Modifying Fixture Parameters 175
Buddy Parts: When buddy parts is enabled the individual parts of compound fixtures
and aggregated fixtures are treated as one fixture when fanning values. For example,
when fanning intensity across a group of a compound fixtures such as LED bars
composed of multiple cells, the standard fanning behavior results in a fanning between
each cell. Enabling the buddy parts option buddies the cells of the LED bars so that
they are treated as single fixture which produces fanning between each fixture and not
each cell.
Tip: By default the segment and buddying options are retained even after pressing the
Clear key. To reset the segment and buddying options when Clear is pressed, enable the
option in Setup → Prefe ren ces → Progra mming.
