fade to a lower intensity
Posted: 29 Jul 2022, 09:29
I'm very new to this, so it's probably something stupid I'm doing, but I cannot fade in a cue with a _lower_ intensity on a fixture.
I have my theatre spot at 50%, and in the next cue I have it at 0 (or 5, something low, anyway). I give the second cue a 'fade in' value of 5, but when I switch to it the spot just immediately jumps to the lower intensity.
If I change that second cue to be 100% instead, then the fade works as I expect (i.e. it fades up from 50 to 100).
I tried setting a 'fade out' on the first cue, but... I don't know what that's doing at all. It certainly doesn't fade the first cue out. In fact, it seems to show the green 'fade progression' bar growing when the first cue is activated.
How do I fade it _down_?
