Once you are finished, move the pipe down manually in a side view until it reaches the correct height.Ģ. In the Length box, type a short length for the pipe (for example, 2’). To place a Cyberlight or other moving mirror fixture on the floor, insert a (short) pipe at a default 20′ height, hang the fixture on it, and then spin/pan/tilt it to the required angle (from the fixture’s properties). To place a moving mirror fixture on the floor This value will cause the fixture’s “virtual C-Clamp” to spin around the pipe, which makes the fixture point upward (towards the ceiling).ġ2. Focus the fixture as necessary. Click on the fixture to select it and then right-click and choose Properties.ġ1. In the Spin box, type 180. You may also use a more accurate relative move to move the pipe a specific distance on the Z axis (for example -20’4”).ħ. In the Library Browser, click the Fixtures tab.Ĩ. Double-click the fixture that you want to use and then click to place it on the pipe in the appropriate spot.ĩ. Note that the fixture points down (into the floor). Use the Tips above to determine where to place the pipe. If necessary, rotate the pipe to face the proper direction.ĥ. Click the Side, Front, or Back View quadrant.Ħ. Enable Ortho for the Z-axis, and then select the pipe and drag it down to the proper distance beneath the stage so that your fixtures will rest on the stage floor. Click OK.Ĥ. Click to place the pipe in the desired location. To reorient them, you must change their spin angle to 180.ġ. In CAD Mode > Quad view, click Draw > Pipe.Ģ. In the Length box, type the length of the pipe.ģ. Leave the default trim height because you will change it later. Once you hang fixtures on the pipe, they will naturally point downward. Note that you will not be able to insert a pipe at a “negative height”, so insert it at any positive height and the move it down under the floor.
To create a ground row, instead of using multiple Floaters, insert a pipe about 4″ under the floor, and then hang your zipstrips, cycs or whatever fixtures you need on it.

For example, you could double-click Manufacturer > M N O P > Martin > Mac 2000E Performance.ħ. Click to place the fixture on the floor mount.Ĩ. Right-click and choose Finish Placing Fixtures. In this example, the Proscenium Arch is used.ġ. In CAD Mode > Wireframe view, click Library > Browse Library.Ģ. In the Library Browser, click the Truss tab.Ĥ. Click to place the floor mount in the desired position (or type a precise coordinate and press ENTER).ĥ. In the Library Browser, click the Fixtures tab.Ħ. Navigate to the fixture that you want to insert. Note: Before you begin this procedure, you must already have a defined venue. If you are using automated (moving head) fixtures, it is recommended that you move the Floater 4″ under the stage (otherwise the base of your fixture will “hover” above the stage). The easiest way to place a light on the floor is to insert a Floater or a Varilite stand on the floor (both found in the Floor Mounts section of the Truss library), and then attach a fixture to it. To place a Cyberlight or other moving mirror fixture on the floor, insert a (short) pipe at a default 20′ height, hang the fixture on it, adjust it to the required angle (from the fixture’s properties), and then move the pipe down manually in a side view until it reaches the correct height.Įach of these procedures is outlined below.To create a ground row, instead of using multiple Floaters, insert a pipe about 4″ under the floor and hang your zipstrips, cycs or whatever fixtures you need on it.You could insert a Floater on the floor (both found in the Floor Mounts section of the Truss library), and then attach a fixture to it.
There are several options to choose from, based on the desired lighting effect: Let’s say you’re bidding on a slick product launch or a fashion show and you’d like to place lights on the stage floor, shining upward.
