I recently copied my software and show to a new PC laptop (running Windows 8.1) and many of the fixture names and controls have disappeared. While I can 'right click' and still see the fixture name when I click into "rename fixture), it no longer shows where the channel number is displayed above the fader, nor do I get the function name below the fader. They still work as before, but are no longer named.
On some channels. On some others, they are still there.
Fixture names disappeared
Re: Fixture names disappeared
Did You copy across the fixtures directory after you installed DMXIS on the new machine, sounds as if the fixtures you have lost may not be finding the required fixture definitions. I'd double check that directory to make sure that your fixture definitions are actually there.
