Select bitmap dialog
To assign a bitmap to a palette entry, simply drag and drop the bitmap from the bitmap dialog to the
palette entry. Alternatively high-light the palette entry and double-click the bitmap. Note that it is not
possible to assign color bitmaps to gobo/effect palettes, or gobo bitmaps to color palettes. Click the
gobo or color buttons to change the view between gobo/effect and color bitmaps. LightJockey includes
a number of bitmaps for colors, gobos and effects - it is however likely that when defining new profiles,
the correct bitmaps will not be present. In this case it is possible to create custom bitmaps to use
with the palette buttons - see creating custom bitmaps for palette controls. Note that the bitmaps
available for the color palettes and gobo/effects palettes are not the same - in order to use color
bitmaps for gobos (or the other way around), the bitmap file must be copied into the correct folder.
Editing palette DMX control values
Entering entry palette values
To set DMX control values for each palette button, highlight the entry in the palette definition list and
enter the values in the value fields to the right of the palette list. Note that the labels describing each
values corresponds to the value types defined for the palette and change dynamically with the value
types selected. If a particular button does not have the same or all the functions of other buttons, e.g.
if the open gobo does not have values for rotation or index just leave the field blank. Then, when
selecting open gobo on the fixture control the rotation and index functions will not be available. When
the values have been entered, click Set Palette Values.
Right-click the palette list to access the palette popup men:
Insert - inserts empty line (disabled if last palette entry is already used)
Delete - deletes the highlighted palette entries
Clear - clears the selected palette entries
Clear all - clears all palette entries
Compact palette - removes (deletes) 'empty' palette entries and compacts palette
Copy palette to clipboard - copies palette to clipboard
Copy palette from clipboard - copies the contents of a palette that has previously been copied to the
clipboard.
Note : color palettes can only be copied from other color palettes while gobo and effect palettes may
be copied from each other.
