Updating Cuelist Question

[RG Lighting]

I have a quick question about updating my cues within my cuelists. I bought my first Avolite board this summer. I feel like I know what I'm doing. I've been using it for shows since July. But I have this issue of what I'm calling the "Ghost Cue". It is a random problem that is a major headache.

If I write a cuelist with 4 cues or even 40 cues.. sometimes I get changes that I did not write. Example: if i write 'Cue 1' with a special downstage on one dancer (with all the right channels: position, color, zoom), then write 'Cue 2' with another special upstage on another dancer (with all the right channels: position, color, zoom), and lastly I want 'Cue 3' to move everything into a generic wash across the entire stage.

When I run back through the cues I find 'Cue 2' to be in red and the zoom is at 100%. When I wrote 'Cue 2" to be white at a 35% zoom. Basically it is not at all what I wrote, but that's the cue I get. It's like it's pulling information from something I did a month ago..

I have tried every type of record mode to fix this. Although, even if I re-write the cue and update through the record cuelist option or merge or replace that existing cue, nothing changes. It continues to be red and zoomed to 100%.

When this madness happens to me, I usually have to start completely over with this entire cuelist. This adds quite a bit of time to my programing. If anyone has any ideas or knows exactly what I'm doing wrong, please let me know. I would be very appreciative.

Thanks in advance

So, am I the only Avo user with this problem?

I think you need to allow more time. It is less than 24 hrs since you posted and only 18 people have read it as I write this. And even if one of those 18 people has an idea they might not have had time yet to reply.

On face value it's not something I have seen and my immediate thought is one way or another the information is not in the programmer when it is being recorded. There are a lot of variables though. If you have repeatable steps then that would be useful.
