Larry_Sweeney Posted Sunday at 04:28 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:28 PM I have many different rope lights in my adjust lights dbx. (attachment). Because of this I would like to give each rope light its own name. I've changed the label name for each rope light, but the change does not show up in the "Adjust Lights" dbx. under the Name" column. I can't seem to find anywhere else or how to change the names of each individual rope light. For a light fixture from the library, I can just make the name change in the "3D" dbx. What am I missing for changing the name of a rope light's name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted Sunday at 04:34 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:34 PM I could be wrong, but I think you will need a separately named symbol for each different rope light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry_Sweeney Posted Monday at 02:19 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 02:19 PM "Not that difficult. Just add one to the Library with a new name; repeat, repeat, repeat..." Yes true, but what if you need a different size (length), shape or number of lights? Do you make a symbol for just one rope light bulb for the symbol. Then what, when installing it in the plan. Multiple "blubs" to make one string of a rope light. I'm sure I'm missing something in your solution, or at least not understanding the "whole picture" of what you're saying with your solution. Maybe I need my second cup of coffee this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
