SpotlightCreating an instrument summary for a hanging position

An instrument summary can be created for a hanging position rather than for the entire drawing.

To create an instrument summary for a selected hanging position:

Select the hanging position.

From the Object Info palette, click Insert Position Summary.

A position summary is added next to the hanging position.

If a summary build list has never been specified in the file, a placeholder labeled Build List is placed instead, indicating that a build list has not yet been specified in the file and needs to be set.

The position summary uses the Summary Defaults for parameters for a position, as set up in the instrument summary settings, and the summary is filtered for the current hanging position. As lighting devices are added to the position, click Insert Position Summary to add the lighting devices to the end of the summary. To change specific instrument summary parameters, select the instrument summary and edit the parameters in the Object Info palette as described in Creating an instrument summary.

If you delete a hanging position, the associated instrument summary is also deleted.
