Fixtures with Asymmetric Beams Render Round

Issue

  • When patching a fixture with an asymmetrical beam such as a ColorSource Cyc or PAR Can, the beam in Augment3d renders round instead.
  • There is no option for showing a CYC adapter on a ColorSource Spot or Source 4 LED fixture.
  • Desire and Selador Classic fixtures do not have options for linear diffusion.

Explanation of Issue

At initial release, Augment3d does not support visualizing asymmetrical beams. This is planned for a future version.

Workaround

The closest workaround is to set the beam degree of the fixture to the closest round equivalent of the beam desired.  This is done in Patch and is a per-channel setting.
