Problem with fixtures loosing updated position pallets

[peter.rodda]

I recently had a show where I was updating position pallets from pre-programming with the visualizer.

I would take the group of Beam fixtures in the roof; fine tune each of the positioning with highlight, then save/merge the position pallet. Then I would do the same for the beam fixtures on the ground. But then when clearing and recalling the updated pallet, the first fixture in each of the groups (groups and roof) would go to a weird position, while all the others kept their updated position.

It was very weird.

I tried re-positioning and resaving/merging, but I would seem to get the same problem. And with other groups of fixtures aswell. For some reason, it always seemed to be the first in a type of fixture that would not behave properly (e.g. the first Robe Beam 600 patched, or the first Robe Spot 575 patched).

Is this an issue with shared pallets vs. normal pallets?
