When sharing a fixture there should be some things to be considered first:
- A fixture should reflect the exact indications given in the product user manual
- Fixtures with missing modes should be completed before sharing
- Descriptions in other languages than English will not be accepted
- If a fixture is OK for you, it doesn't mean it is OK for everyone. Do not abbreviate channel names for your own convenience, Other users using it might have difficulties with that
- Do not write everything in caps. The Fixture Definition Editor will block you to 5 characters anyway
- Double check the strings you enter for missing characters or typos
- Please always remember to fill the physical information of each mode
- If you're sharing a LED bar fixture, remember to include the heads on the appropriate modes
- If your fixture has some named color presets, remember to add the Click & Go info. Details here: http://www.qlcplus.org/clickandgo.html
- If your fixture has gobo channels and uses gobos not included in QLC+, you can share new gobos, but with a written permission from the gobos manufacturer. Most of them are covered by copyrights and might lead to legal issues
- if you can, please share a link pointing to the product manual, so reviewing the definition will be faster and easier
If some or none of the above are followed, it means someone else will have to review your fixture, thus wasting his time.
Before starting to create a new fixture you should watch this video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3omuD6F9RI
**Note: the Sourceforge forum is buggy ! So at the first post you won't be able to attach a file. The trick is to just edit the post afterwards and attachments will be possible**
