hello all

I'm so new to this software and I just seem to struggle with everything from simple things up to more advanced stuff so I'm probably going to be asking a lot of questions. I have a pretty simple one for you here.

I'm trying too create some quick blackout buttons so that I can clackout certain groups of my lights with the touch of a button. once the button is released I want the blackout to release how would I achieve this

thanks

Select your group of projectors, put the shutter value on "closed" or you also can put the dimmer to 0% if no shutter available, then record on a executor button. Then playback option on your executor, and put the relaese from "global" to "dimmer".

You have your blackout for your group of projectors, then you san change the profile of the executor to put it in "flash", "toggle" ect...

This is a good suggestion but setting dimmer to 0% won't work as this is an HTP function. Possible alternatives might be to create a mode 3 playback containing intensity for the fixtures you want to remain on (the others will fade out) or setting the playbacks containing remaining intensity to a high priority and using a button with swop action to kill everything else.

If anyone is interested I'll list what I did to achieve a similar thing. Pretty simple but as a newbie was not sure. My old software used blackout buttons to black fixtures out where as this uses flash button.
I just created different intensity cues for different groups of lights,l along with a 100% all units master. This way I can flash between fixture groups.

Very simple :)
