So we were playing around on Tiger today and D4 Titan and can't work out how you get the menu you get when pressing the wheel @ button on the D4 on the Tiger???

How do you 'remove from programmer', 'hold' etc on the smaller consoles?

Cheers

To input values numerically press one of the numbers on the keypad to enter the numeric menu. From there you can assign to wheel.

For removing from programmer there are additional options when holding clear. Also you can toggle values in/out from the attributes workspace.

In Titan 3.1 (plus) the hold function is not available.

So the choices you get on the softkeys on the D4 when pressing the @ button for each wheel are not available on the Pearls or any longer in D4 titan?

That's a shame because I find that menu extremely usefull. Also sad that HOLD has been removed because I know I pushed hard to have that implimented and it's a very usefull feature.

Hold (now to be called "freeze") will be going into Expert and TT V4 subject to testing. It will work in the same way as the D4, in that you will be able to freeze either an entire fixture, or single attributes.

The @ menu remains the same on D4 Titan. You can also now double press the @ button on any percentage attribute to send it to full, ie CMY, dimmer, frost etc.

but... can you get access to that @ menu on Expert and Touch? And if so how?

Well as the button layout is different on the D4 to Expert and Tiger Touch, there will never be exactly the same menu.

You can reach the functions in the following way:

- remove from programmer - this can be done in the attribute control window by 'touching' in and out of the programmer.
- switch on - not yet implemented in Expert/TT
- switch off - use the 'off' function
- select from table - this same list is found in the attribute control window
- input named value - this simply enables you to search in the select from table menu, whereas the options are listed for you in the Expert/TT attribute window
- hold - implemented in V4

Thats good to know, its remove from programmer I tend to make the most use of.

This is the one thing Ive always struggled the most with going from the D4 to the other consoles is finding functions that dont have dedicated keys on those smaller consoles.
