Using the Editor
The editor is used to create new or edit copied scrolls and wheels. While in the picker display, you can

The editor does not limit how many frames you can add to the scroll or wheel for the selected fix-
tures. Keep in mind that any fixture has its own limitations. For example, if you have created a cus-
