Specific lighting device data can be mapped to Vision data fields. The mapping applies when exporting any Vectorworks file to Vision with the Send to Vision or Export ESC commands.
To configure mapping between the Vectorworks and Vision programs:
Select File > Document Settings > Spotlight Preferences.
The Spotlight Preferences dialog box opens. Click the Lighting Device tab.
Click Edit Vision Data Mapping.
The Vision Data Mapping dialog box opens. The Vision data field names display on the left. On the right, the Vectorworks lighting device parameters are available for mapping.
For each Vision data field, select the associated lighting device parameter to map to it during export.
The Gobo and Color data fields are for use by conventional fixtures that only support a single gobo or color (typically non-moving light fixtures).
Click OK to return to the Spotlight Preferences dialog box.
