The syntax elements of the Gobo sub-area are used to control a gobo wheel including its additional functions such as continuous rotation of individual gobos in various directions, positioning at a specific angle (gobo indexing), and using the gobo shake.

= Gobo Wheel =
With the help of a gobo, a moving head or scanner projects various figures and motifs into space or onto the dance floor.

The number of gobos for a gobo wheel is effectively unlimited. However, due to technical limitations, only 255 different gobos plus open (no gobo) are possible. A DMX channel can only accept values between {{Manual Value | DMX value | 0}} and {{Manual Value | DMX value | 255}}. In total, up to three gobo wheels can be created in a DDF.

{{Manual Box | en | Attention | The following variations are not supported by DDFCreator and must be edited manually after insertion:
* Activation of gobo indexing via a separate DMX channel
* Activation and adjustment of the gobo rotation direction via a separate DMX channel, adjustment of rotation speed via the DMX channel for gobo speed
* Activation and adjustment of the continuous rotation direction of the gobo wheel via a separate DMX channel, adjustment of rotation speed via the actual DMX channel for the gobo wheel}}

== Basic Functions ==
For the gobo wheel, the file name of the gobo icon is always stored in the <code>val</code> attribute. The icons then appear automatically with the icons in the gobo control as well as in the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Device Control DMXC3|Device Control]]}}. The "clear name" of the gobo is entered in the <code>caption</code> attribute, which is also output in the device control. With the help of the gobo icons, the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[HAL DMXC3|Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL)]]}} of DMXControl 3 automatically selects the gobos from various devices that are most similar. If no gobo icons are stored in the DDF, the DDF can still be used, but automatic selection of the most similar gobos from different devices is not available in this case.

{{Manual Box | en | Important | Due to the age of the DDFCreator, it does not recognize the directory introduced in the meantime {{Manual Filepath|Custom DDFs}} or {{Manual Filepath|User Devices}}. As a result, the icons for the gobos must be inserted manually, for example using '''Notepad++'''<ref>[https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ Official Website] of the free text editor '''Notepad++'''</ref> and the supporting plugin XML-Tools.}}

{{Manual Box | en | Hint | It is permissible to enter the same values for the <code>mindmx</code> and <code>maxdmx</code> attributes. This is always necessary when the gobo wheel does not have a fixed position for a particular gobo and can be positioned arbitrarily. }}

== Additional Functions ==
For individual functions of the channel for the gobo wheel, the following additional functions are possible:
* <code>goboindex</code>: Alignment of the gobo at a specific angle, known as gobo indexing
* <code>goborotation</code>: Continuous rotation of the gobo in various directions
* <code>goboshake</code>: Gobo shake, i.e., moving the gobo back and forth at various speeds on the same DMX channel
* <code>wheelrotation</code>: Continuous rotation of the gobo wheel

Except for the rotation of the entire gobo wheel, these additional functions can be called in three different ways:
* For the control of the additional functions, one or more separate DMX channels are used.
* The additional functions are on the same DMX channel as the gobo wheel itself.
* Although the control of the functions is also on a separate DMX channel, they are activated depending on a certain value range on the gobo wheel. In this case, the available gobos in the overview are listed multiple times.

=== Gobo Indexing ===
Gobo indexing is used to align the gobo at a specific angle or position. Limiting the maximum rotation angle for gobo indexing to 360° is sometimes not sensible in terms of possible effects, which is why the maximum permissible rotation angle is larger.

=== Goboshake ===
Goboshake must be set up individually for each gobo. This means that first, it must be defined at which DMX values the Goboshake is deactivated. These values usually correspond to the DMX values where the gobo is selected. Second, it must be defined at which DMX values the Goboshake is active. Speeds must also be specified here. The third entry to be added is the element <code><goboshake /></code> itself, which is listed directly as the first subelement for the <code>gobowheel</code> element. This indicates that the Goboshake function lies on the same DMX channel as the actual base function.
