As files are uploaded to fixtures, the User interface displays progress information and notifies
the user of any naming conflicts when files are renamed.
A newly uploaded file or folder will have a default DMX value of zero. If a naming conflict occurs,
you will be prompted before overwriting the file.
Moving Files Between Fixtures
The CMA can transfer both individual files or entire folders between fixtures. The DMX values
assigned to the files are transferred along with the files themselves. You can also simultaneously
transfer files from one fixture to a group of fixtures.
