vinntec Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I have built a new model from an imported technical drawing. After importing the file, it was side to side wheras I prefer to have the stage at the top, so I rotated the whole thing 90 degrees. Put bars and venue details in - so far so good. The snag is that when I put a fixture onto a bar, it faces downwards away from the stage (set to pan 0 tilt 0 as normal). I have obviously done something stupid. Help! One extra possible clue - which might be a red herring - when I earlier set a user origin this was fine until I tried to use shading view but my POV was stuck at the real origin so I could just about find my theatre but it was miles away and effectively moved side to side. I eventually picked up the whole model and centred it on real 0,0 which cured this problem. WYSIWYG Design R28 Update 1. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinntec Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 I have tracked down what I did wrong... For the record, when I imported the plan drawing I rotated it 90 degrees in an attempt to get it with the stage at the top but this came out the wrong way around. I then rotated it 180 degrees to get it the right way up and I think this is where WYSIWYG got its knickers in a twist. What I should have done is undone the first rotation then rotated by -90 degrees - which is what I have now done and everything is fine now.
