What
if I’ve already entered some of my information
by hand?
FocusTrack’s QuickFocus function lets
you easily drop lights onto a cue image to note
where that light is lighting. You can then use
this to generate lists of focuses, where you can
add more information as required.
FocusTrack merges information wherever possible, so
if you've started tracking your show manually and
have already told it that you've used channel 1 in
preset position 300 it will keep that information and
add the information about the cues that preset group
is actually used in when you import data from the
console.
FocusTrack will also flag changes if you re-import a
showfile. If a lamp in a particular preset focus is
no longer used in the show, that will be flagged. If
the pan and tilt values for a preset focus have been
changed, that will be flagged (since that might
indicate that the light is being used in a different
position from before and so might need to be
re-photographed).
Changes to the cuelist will also be flagged, with
deleted cue parts shown in red and new cue parts
shown in green.
And once you’ve imported, you can have
FocusTrack auto-fill the QuickFocus grid, to give a
clear, easy-to-read cue-by-cue summary of what every
moving light is doing, perfect for handing over to
those running the show every night.
