UNFOLD fixtures

Postby Raúl » 05 Jan 2012, 12:20

How can I unfold multiple fixtures at once?

As for example, if I have 24 MAC Aura, and I what to set an Aura color for all 24, how I can do?

I can do it one by one, but I cannot unfold more than one fixture...

Cheers,

Unfortunately it is not possible at the moment. But the requirement is understood and hopefully there will be a solution soon.

In the meantime there are two workarounds:

1) Unfold fixture, select cells, record group. Repeat for subsequent fixtures merging groups until you have a group containing all the cells.

2) Assign the cells to handles: Open Show Library workspace or go to Disk/[Show Library]. Toggle [Show Unassigned Handles]. Toggle other options until only Fixtures are shown. Select first cell and select a destination handle. Repeat for all cells.

I prefer the latter, assigning to a separate fixture workspace page in a way that represents layout on stage (maybe not with the Aura though!). I would usually then create groups from this workspace.

Another couple of ways to select just the cells of a fixture are:

a) Numerically: selecting [x][.] will select the cells of a fixture (where x is the fixture's number).

or

b) Channel Grid: Open Channel Grid and drag to select just the cells all at once. From there you can store a group.

When you could be arranged?
It is the library problem?, Or software version?
Thank you.

:cry:

very bad this one... you need to thing about a more versatile way to control that... maybe the solution is tweack the library, and allow this from the fixture...
