Mirror Position Pan/Tilt

[@m.p.7617]

This is great for when your fixtures all are straight with pan at 0, but what about if my straight position isnt 0? Say im working with a rig and my straight pan value is at 20, and i make my "Pan Left" position and it comes out at 0 on the fixture, then mirroring to get a "Pan Right" will do nothing. Is there a way to still incorporate this trick into my workflow for cases like this? Very handy though, and something i will definitely be keeping in my back pocket!

Hi, yes the best way to do so is to keep all lights centered at 0 Deg. And you can always achieve this by using the Offset feature, this way no matter if your fixtures are 10, 20 or even 90 deg off - The displayed physical values will always be 0 and this is useful in a lot of circumstances. Check the command STORE OFFSET - Maybe I should do a quicktip with offset?

🤔 wonder if this works with gobo rotate. Hog has a nice feature just hold the -key and it will swap the rotate. I hate having to scroll and match the speeds by sight.

@@nickipsen9328 Hi, Goborotation should also work because its again physical values. But I would go an much easier way: Select your fixtures use MAtricks to create a xGroup of 2 then press align once and then start turning the gobo rotation -> Now odd will turn left and even will turn right in the same speed.

@@Lacaverecords A quick tip on offsets would be great.
