Options Tab 2: Tooltips |

This tab on the Light-O-Rama Visualizer's Options dialog controls whether or not tooltips are displayed on the main editor screen and, if they are displayed, how they are displayed. Tooltips can give you a quick way of looking at a fixture or prop's parameters and data.

Holding SHFT while pointing at CCR or DMX Pixel Universes
When in fixture mode, if you point at a CCR or DMX Pixel universe fixture, the pixels will 'light up' in the order they are assigned to the fixture. This can help with finding pixels that are for some reason 'out of order' on your stage. The slider here will set how fast the pixels light up from fast to slow. |
