Custom Lighting Controls files

First off this may already exist?  I am presently working on a Halloween lighting project where we develop custom DMX light controls.   I am wondering how hard it would be to store the Labels, Notes .... to a file similar to what exists with the Open Fixture library import.   I recently dug myself into a hole by making a 64 channel device where there was needed number of at least 3 copies within the universe.  Unless I am not understanding the mapping I can not simply map to another location and keep the channel's info to the new location (Im kinda a Nooby on this).   I found it really easy to map devices using the Open Fixture library with the exception of  "oops I put it in the wrong channel location - getting rid of range of channels was not easy for me "one by one" via the channel editor).  This is a fantastic App with a fabulous group... We are looking forward to using it more...

Hi,

i totally understand what you are saying. This is not possible yet, but you gave us a great idea for future releases. Something like "custom fixture". So you can create your own fixture, store it and then use it the same as Open Fixture Library.

You can also contribute to Open Fixture Library and add your lights to library. We will update MiX16 Apps with the latest version of Open Fixture Library with almost every new update of our apps.
