Obtaining photometric data
Vectorworks can determine and display the approximate amount of light at a point on the stage at a specific elevation (Photometer object) or along a grid (Photometric Grid object). The pen color of each indicator provides a visual cue of the light intensity according to defined ranges.
The photometric tools use the Candlepower parameter in the Light Info Record to determine the lighting intensity.
For photometric values to be measured, the lighting devices must have a designated focus point.
