Hi Nikolaus, Unfortunately there is a bug in grandMA3 that causes Master set to 'Grand' and 'Group' to behave in the same way. In grandMA3, a logical channel with master 'Group' should not react to the grand master. With 'Grand', however, both a group master and the grand master should have an effect.

Hi @r2.square There are several possibilities when selecting a subfixture within a parent-child structure and changing the value of an attribute via the encoder: 1) The attribute exists at the level of the selected subfixture -> the value of the channel of the subfixture changes. 2) The attribute does not exist at the level of the selected subfixture, but its parent has a channel with this attribute -> the value of the parent's channel changes. 3) The attribute exists at the level of the selected subfixture and its parent has a channel with the same attribute -> only the value of the subfixture's channel changes. With 2) it is possible to control the pan/tilt of the main fixture even if I have only selected one subfixture. The same applies to the effect channels in your case. Select fixture 1.1 and turn the encoder of the FX1 channel. The value of the effect channel will change as the value change is passed on to the parent. I could imagine that you may have stumbled across the bug that if you select subfixture 1.1, open the FX1 channel's calculator and select one of the pre-defined channel sets for the effects, no value change occurs. I will create a ticket for this bug at MA. I hope I understood your question correctly. With kind regards, Daniel

Hello Brothers, Thanks for the report. The connection of the grandMA3 to the GDTF Share is now working again. Best regards, Daniel GDTF Team

Hi @Paolo.Prolights, continuous pan and tilt rotation is not yet visualized in the grandMA3 3D window. Best regards, Daniel

Hi @Paolo.Prolights, issue with this GDTF file is that it is a compressed zip. A GDTF file shall be uncompressed zip. After I removed the compression the parser of the grandMA3 library correctly parsed the name of the fixture. I can recreate that patching the fixture fails in grandMA3. I have to take a closer look what is the reason for this behavior. Kind regards, Daniel

The GDTF Builder 1.3.12 is now online. Improved in this release: Fixed: it was not possible to enter values for the property Beam Diameter of geometry type “Beam”. Fixed: DMX values were not properly recalculated when copying a channel function to another DMX channel that had another resolution. Fixed: it was not possible to reorder mode master containers by drag ‘n’ drop. Fixed: parsing errors in the fixture template „Moving Mirror”. Improved stability.

Hi Ryan, I tried to access the Builder with the latest Chrome and Firefox and it is working fine. We will have a look if we can figure out what caused the downtime of the Builder. Cheers, Daniel

Hi ketchman77, could you please attach a screenshot of the error. I tested it with the latest Chrome/Firefox/Edge and the login to the GDTF Builder is working fine for me. Kind regards, Daniel

@lyon470 You can find the definition in this chapter: https://gdtf-share.com/wiki/GDTF_File_Description#Model_Collect

Unfortunately, you found a bug in the grandMA3 Visualization. It seems that ColorAdditive Attributes on the same level of the kinematic chain but in different geometries (Led4Eck, Led Rund) are mixed together to the same color instead of being independently controllable for each of the geometries.

The 3D visualization of the grandMA3 in version 1.0 does not visualize all attributes yet. For example, the visualization of the framing is one of the attributes that is not supported in the current version.

@David "Rex" Whalen Could you please check your popup setting on Win 7. Popups need to be allowed in order to open a file in the Builder.

Hi Rex, I tried it with the latest Chrome, Firefox and Edge and all of them are working fine on Windows 10. Best regards, Daniel

Ok, now I understand what you mean. It is not possible to change the pixel orientation dynamically at the moment. I have created a Feature Request also for this topic.

Sounds good. I will create a feature request ticket for this.
