Help Import Fixture FIle

[MattCarlsen]

Hello All,

So I read the FAQ and am missing a step somewhere.

I found my fixture here: before_2025_10_10/uking_zq01082

If I save as txt - Import sees the file - but Importing does nothing I can see
If I save as XML - then import does not see it

Do I need to convert XML to Text?

thanks in advance

When I save as XML or TXT ... the file content looks like this. This is not like other fixture files I see in the folder
C:\Program Files\ShowXpress\TheLightingController\editor_fixtures_bank\UKing

Hello,

We have two software versions: TheLightingController Classic (V9) and TheLightingController II.
Each version has its own forum: https://thelightingcontroller.com/

The fixture library formats are different.
TheLightingController Classic (V9) uses TXT files.
TheLightingController II uses XML files.

Please let us know which software you are using, and we will provide you with the appropriate library.
