Overview

StageToLayout automatically places fixtures into GrandMA3 layouts based on their physical position on your stage (from Patch). Instead of positioning each fixture in a layout one by one, you choose which fixture group should go into which layout. The plugin then places everything based on the fixtures' actual coordinates. This is ideal for quick festival setups and touring shows with local MVR files.

What It Does

• Extracts fixture positions from GrandMA3's 3D stage data
• Maps stage coordinates to layout grid positions automatically
• Supports up to 12 group-layout pairs in one batch operation
• Either overwrites layouts or merges new fixtures
• Preserves your spatial arrangement — fixtures appear in the layout exactly where they are on stage
