You can create 8 shape movemwnt easily from the square shape. Of course there will be one drawback this shape can be a little bit squared (but only as drawed). The outcome will looks like 8 shape. Not on scanners, the scanner will follow the lines of the square, even my moving heads do the same it'...

Hi Will I requested that we get more pre defined shapes in the effects generator, how about a figure of 8, this cannot be created for scanners with a circle easily. Moving heads do a figure of 8 by default if they are not restricted on the pan and tilt but if they are forward-facing only they won't ...

Will, we really need better. This is not good enough, no bugs fixed that many have reported, nothing new. I suppose you are working on DL 6 though which we will have to pay for.

You'll need to completely uninstall the current version then reinstall the previous version 5.0.3.1 which I managed to find https://eu-software.n-g.co/Release/Daslight5.exe

While the user interface and programming function well in terms of process flow and are enjoyable to use when functioning properly, the company's lack of professionalism and apparent failure to test new releases is concerning.

You'll need to completely uninstall the current version then reinstall the previous version 5.0.3.1 which I managed to find https://eu-software.n-g.co/Release/Daslight5.exe Completely sick of this company, nearly 4 hours spent last night updating to new broken version to then spend time downgrading ...

It's ruined my shows. The DMX outputs are behaving erratically whenever I open the file. Easy View simply displays the color wheels or gobo wheels scrolling endlessly without any control. I have four Chauvet Intimidator Scan 360 fixtures in one of my shows, but other fixtures in my other shows are e...

Same issue - instead on intimidator scan 360 the colour and gobo wheels just spin and nothing works. THis software is a joke.

Thank you for this detailed list of issues. All these problems have been taken into account and will be discussed for the next major release. Yours sincerely Next major update? Do you mean Daslight 6? It would be unfair to correct issues in Daslight 5 then bring a new version out and have the cheek...

Noticed the same issue, if I navigate to the file when Daslight is already open (new instance) then it works, and the file loads. I also tried associating that file type with Daslight again and that seemed to work. This software is beginning to feel like the last. Loads of issues fix one thing and b...

+1 I've had this response from Daslight via email, I've not managed to try it yet but they said in the previous version this pause feature was not restored correctly. They have corrected this in the latest release which means pause is enabled by default upon updating. "the bank with the moveme...

Updated the software as above, got to a gig last week and it asked me to update, should have declined the update. It broke all my movements that are stored so my moving heads would not move. Even tried to create a new movement using the FX generator, nothing. The heads moved a slight bit but that’s ...

You fix one thing and break another…

Upgraded from the May release to the Nov release and now none of my moves work… can’t even use FX/move generator

But the DMX addresses of each fixture are the same... it's just they need to be on Universe 2 in the software.

This has turned out to be a firmware issue within the scanners themselves. Chauvet are investigating at present.
