How to export scenes/switches from 1 show to another show?

Post by nandopnl »

hi,

I have a pc with my full set of scenes and shows for my festivals.

How to export scenes and switches from my main show to another show in that have the same fixtures?
Transfer only scenes from a specific page is that I need. It's possible via windows explorer?

Thank you.

Hi,

I don't think it's very clean and secure but you can copy files between one show to another one. That's may work.
Before copying any files, you should do a security backup of your shows by exporting them using the "Open/save show" window.

So, all your opened shows are stored in <path_to_sunlite>\_DataLight\

Here, you can find all your shows in different folders. Inside them you can find a folder for each page. And the next level is the button files.
So, you can copy some switches from one show to another and try them. That only work if the patch is exactly the same for each show.
