Fixture Sheet Modes

Fixture Mode

The Fixture mode shows all objects with an ID and the values of every available attribute. For more information, see Patch and Fixture Setup.

The fixture sheet is divided into rows and columns.

The first column is the fixture name. To see the sub-fixtures, tap the arrow on the left side of the fixture name column.

The second column is the FID (Fixture ID). Every fixture patched in the showfile must have a unique FID, CID, or both. If a fixture contains sub-fixtures, these IDs will be the fixture number, a dot, and a sub-number.

The next column shows the IDtype of the fixture. Learn more about the ID types in the What are Fixtures topic.

The next column is the CID (Channel ID / Custom ID, depending on the ID type). This is the other ID a fixture can have.

The following columns display the values for the fixture's different attributes, depending on the mask and display settings. Some attributes might have symbols next to them, showing the selected gobo or the result of the color attributes.

Channel Mode

The Channel mode only shows the ID (it prioritizes the CID Type Channel if available), the intensity value, and a small square showing the current color.
