Where should DMXIS fixture files be saved on Mac OS X?

Question

You have downloaded a fixture definition file from fixtures.dmxis.com (or created your own using a text editor). How do you copy this file to the correct location?

Answer

  • Click anywhere on the OS X Desktop (or click on the Finder icon in the Dock)
  • Choose Go > Go to Folder… from the Finder menu
  • Type “/Library/Application Support/ENTTEC/DMXIS” and click Go
  • Place your fixture file anywhere inside the DmxLibrary folder

You can create any subfolders required inside DmxLibrary, and these subfolders will show up in the DMXIS fixture menu.
