[SML] LightWright Hassles.

[Randy Storms]

I've never had much to do with LightWright in the past, but changes at work
have forced my hand.  I'm struggling at the moment with Lightwright 5 not
saving information correctly.  For instance:  I changed the "User 1" column
title to "Location" and manually entered the hanging info for every light
in my rig.  Saved the worksheet.  Went to layout, worked up my instrument
schedule and printed it, everything looked great.  Hit "save" and also
"save layout".  Restarted Lightwright and "Location" had reverted to "User
1", all the data I had entered was missing, and all the tweaks I had made
to the layout were gone.  Re-entered everything, re-saved it all, and
re-lost it all.  Said a bad word.

Also - at the same time I am struggling with Lightwright 5, we just
downloaded Lightwright 6.  I want to include arrows on my hang tag labels,
which *should* be easy, but I can't figure out the process. My content
options are - Image: Show Graphic, Image: Layout Graphic, Image: Gobo
Picture, Image: Color Swatch, and Image: Focus Sketch. I don't know how to
designate a graphic as a "Show" or "Layout" graphic so that it is
selectable for insertion into a label.

Any advice would be appreciated.
