How Do I Change a Laser Dancer’s View Angle and Beam Color?

Open Clap and Sweep in ILDA Files. In the INSPECTOR, set VIEW ANGLE to Front and watch the dance in 2D. Then try 45° left. Watch the hands as they pass the torso. The same movement can read differently when the arms and body overlap in the drawing.

Clap and Sweep at 45° left with Rainbow, shown in ILDA Viewer’s Cinema preview.

How do I find another dance?

In ILDA FILES, set CATEGORY to Characters. Choose Female Figure or Male Figure under CHARACTER and Dance under MOVE TYPE. Select a routine and let it play through. Try Front for a move with broad arm gestures and a profile for a walk. Use the 45° views when you want some depth and still need to read the shape of the limbs.

How do I change the color and keep the angle?

Open BEAM COLOR in the INSPECTOR and choose a palette swatch for one color. Turn on RAINBOW for multiple colors along the drawing. Check the same move in 2D so you can see the outline clearly before switching views.

Click OPEN IN ILDA VIEWER to inspect your selection in the Viewer. The link carries the chosen angle and color. If you rotate the camera in its 3D scene, you change where you watch from. To change the angle baked into the drawing, go back to VIEW ANGLE in ILDA Files.

DOWNLOAD .ILD uses the settings you picked in the Inspector. Check the cue’s FREE or PRO tag for download access. Both types can be previewed in the browser. The ILDA Files guide explains the controls. For still poses you want to place one after another, see the pose sequencing tutorial.
