Fixture defs in 4.12

Is it still recommended to keep private fixture definitions in your user library instead of the QLC fixture folder. I have four defined and the fixture managers has found 3 of the four. I have not had an opportunity to search the new documentation yet so I apologize if this is answered in the documentation.

Thanks

Edit after I had time to study:

It is really important that your fixture names are not duplicated. I was creating a fixture definition for a Focus Spot Two by copying the Focus Spot One and changing the channels that were different. I renamed the file, but forgot to change the fixture name in the definition itself.

Let the laughter commence, but hopefully others can learn from my embarrassment.

I believe the answer is "yes".
But if your fixture definitions are complete then it's best to submit them in the Fixture definitions forum and then they can be included in the next release of QLC+ for everyone, and you don't have to think about them again. :)
