Fixtures not in alphabetical order

Post by Moggy624 »

Hi Im new to lighting and have purchased the DMXIS which is up and running on my mac book pro.

I've been reading through the forum and watching tutorials online and have noticed that the fixture list on those online videos is on Alphabetical order. When i open up my DMXIS they're not.

Just wondering how to get my fixture list in order? I've opened the fixture library in /Library/Application Support/ENTTEC/DMXIS/DmxLibrary/ and the fixtures are in alphabetical order so not sure where next to go to sort them? Could anyone suggest how I get round this.

Thanks in advance

This is a known bug with DMXIS on macOS. It's fixed in the DMXIS 1.6.8, which you can grab here:

I peeked at the DMXIS forum and found this beta version 1.6.8, but the link but it does not work, by chance the version was withdrawn or the link was changed?
Thank you
I await a kind reply

DMXIS 1.6.9 is the latest beta:
This is identical to the 1.6.8 beta, with one bugfix - masked presets were not loading properly.

good morning Dave
also in this case the link that leads me to version 1.6.8 to solve the bug does not work, what can I do?
