You can modify GDTF fixtures in the scene by opening the GDTF Fixture Builder ( fixturebuilder.gdtf-share.com ) directly from Vision. Internet access is required. When saving a fixture in the Fixture Builder, the associated .gdtf file is updated, along with each instance of that fixture type in the scene. This is a local update to the scene file; it does not affect the fixture on the GDTF Share ( gdtf-share.com ). The .gdtf file is saved with the .v3s file.
To update a GDTF fixture:
Select the fixture in the Scene window, and select the command. The associated .gdtf file opens in the Fixture Builder while Vision stays open in the background.
If the GDTF fixture is not properly configured, a list of errors displays. See the GDTF help ( gdtf-share.com/help/en/help/gdtf_builder/index.html ) for more information about creating a valid fixture.
Edit the fixture in the Fixture Builder. Only the DMX Mode name cannot be changed.
When the edits are complete, click Save to update the fixture.
An alert opens, confirming that you want to update all fixtures of this type in the scene. Click OK to update the .gdtf file and all associated fixtures, and to close the Fixture Builder.
