4Bar Fixture

How do I get a proper 3d representation of a Chauvet DJ 4Bar Flex? I loaded the profile ok so it shows up in the fixtures list as expected. (19 channens) But in 3d view there is no selection for a unit with four separate beams. If I add a bunch of single pars, the channel options will not be correct... Help.

Easy work-around (Windows)

Tip 1:
In Editor > Fixtures, Right-click your fixture and select "Clone fixture" and enter 3.
Now in 3DView, you will have 1+3 fixtures illuminating from the same DMX channels.

Tip 2:
If your fixture has
Ch1 Dimmer
Ch2 Shutter
Ch 3-5 RGB (left)
Ch 6-8 RGB (left mid)
Ch 9-11 RGB (Right mid)
Ch 12-14 RGB (Right)
it's better to add separate RGB Pars and just have Ch1/2 as a dummy dimmers during usage.
