Import MVR |

The .mvr file format enables a bidirectional exchange of data between Vectorworks Spotlight and lighting consoles or visualizers. You can export any Vectorworks drawing to a lighting console or visualizer to program a show (see Exporting MVR files). If the .mvr file is modified in the lighting console or visualizer, the modifications can be imported back into Vectorworks to update the original drawing. For example, if fixtures are added and renumbered or a drum kit is moved offstage, these changes can be merged with the Vectorworks drawing while preserving the original Vectorworks geometry.
To import a .mvr file:
With the original Vectorworks drawing open, select the command.
Select the file to import.
The Import MVR File dialog box opens.
