Spot Library



A library of spots for theatre, TV and cinema is present in the ProSceniumDMX directory in a file called SPOTLIST.DBT that has a comma-separated syntax.

The list is always accessible on-line using the " Window " menu. The SPOTLIST.DBT file may be manually edited by the user with the Notepad or Write programs distributed with Windows 95/98.

In ProSceniumDMX this function has been extended to the graphical symbols used for the spots. The icons used to define spot symbols are stored in the "Spots" subdirectory of ProSceniumDMX home directory.

To modify an icon file (extension *.ico) the IMGEDIT.EXE utility is provided in the home directory of ProSceniumDMX .

WARNING ! ! ! Icon files are numbered in a strictly progressive fashion: to add a symbol, be sure to choose the first unassigned number in the "Spots" subdirectory. An erroneous icon numbering may cause serious malfunction of the program. Moreover, when manually editing a spot, the database structure should be strictly respected.
