I know how to tilt the fireworks to the right or to the left. But can we tilt a cake like the GM698A and do it for real?

Oui, consultez le lien de Drew vers la vidéo sur la pêche à la ligne si vous avez du mal à comprendre comment le faire correctement.

WOW that’s some quick service! Thanks Tim

Is the timeline correct or is the simulation correct? In the picture, the break happens at 5.000 seconds on the timeline but the control head is at 5.310 when the break actually begins. Thanks, Tim   Thanks for the heads up Sky Fire Forge, this has been fixed. Select ‘Sync with network’ from the blue drop-down list in the Effects window or go to ‘File > Sync with network’ to download the latest version of the catalog. If you already have these items in your show, you can refresh the show (after syncing) by going to ‘Effects > Update per-show effects’.

Hi Engineer Cat, I don’t see anything unusual in your screenshots. In Finale 3D, “Tilt” is the angle from the vertical axis. If you’re firing an item at any angle other than straight up, a “Tilt” angle is employed. The Tilt column in Script window is the editable field that’s most frequently used to angle effects. The “Angles” column is a read-only field that lists the angle value along with the degree symbol and a forward or backward slash to indicate the angle direction. To learn more about the angle convention in Finale 3D, check out the Mastering Angles – Pan, Tilt & Spin tutorial video.
