hi!
this is my first time here.
i want to know if it is possible to create new shapes, just for moving pan and tilt. example: create diferent shapes to move the movinng heads, and in real time change the other parameters, like colour or gobo! thanks

Hi, welcome to freestyker
yes that is all possible, and possibly more depending on your creativity.
read through some of the tutorials these should head you off in the right direction.
kind regards

I am not sure if this is possible, but don't think so, but:
It would be nice to have the option to add or remove the points defining the shape. Then it would be easy to only have two points and the make for instance a straight line.
Anyone know if that is an option and how?

sorry, it is currently not possible to add/remove nodes in beziers

There is a quite easy way around this problem.
First you make a "circle" program for your scan's (using the beziers).
Second you program an override button which only contains (for example) pan on all the scan's on 122 (the middle).
If you play you circle program and then turn on the button, the scan's will do a circle butt since the X-movement is locked (at 122) they will only make a tilt movement, resulting in a straight line.
You can also do this for you Tilt, so that with one chase and two buttons you can make 3 different movement program's.
