Laserworld Showeditor 2015
Version 2015/1.0 2015 Page 65
at least one color channel runs at full power. The Color Palette can be customized
by just drag-and-drop of colors from the Color Cube or Color Circle to a palette field.
Checkbox “Figures Always on Top“ 6.9.
If “Figures always on top” (Fig. 53) is selected, the Figure
Table always stays in the foreground. This is very useful if
the figures are used for drag-and-drop programming
and also for figure creating in the Figure editor.
The box unchecks automatically if the black background of the Figure Table is
double-clicked (don’t click on a figure) or if the checkbox is unchecked.
The setting is preserved in the configuration, so remains the same on program restart.
Folder-Area 6.10.
To use already existing figures/patterns/frames,
they need to be saved to a physical folder on the
hard disc. Even if new frames should be created, it
makes sense to create a new show folder in the
Windows Explorer first.
This folder holds all figures/patterns/frames and
media files that belong to the very show. It is
recommended to organize all folders in a suitable
structure.
The folder tree shown bottom right in the figure
editor window allows for selecting the right show
folder. Whole shows can also be loaded through
the menu File -> Open Lasershow
On selecting an existent folder, all figures which can be handled by Laserworld
Showeditor, will be to the Figure Table.
ILDA-figures are no Laserworld Showeditor files and must be imported manually (See
chapter 6.13.7).
If a show is loaded through the File -> Open Lasershow menu item, the content of the
area will automatically be updated with the corresponding path of the show folder.
Some special folders are preset in Laserworld
Showeditor.
Folders named “Buchstaben_XXXXX” contain hand-
drawn letters.
6.10.1. Global Figures
The folder “FixFiguren” can be used to store figures
which can be called from every show (Global Figures).
These figures are displayed together with the test
