"Dark Gel" option when patching SCROLLERS on Eos

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a function similar to "Dark Gel" when programming a scroller in EOS. When using very dark gels, in other consoles we can program a continuos Backwards and Forwards movement to avoid the light source burning the center of the gel. Can we do that in EOS?

Thanks

A common solution is to use an effect to move the gel back and forth. I would probably use an absolute effect, but you could also use a relative effect.

I hope this helps?

That helps a lot. I think the effect is the best solution.

Take care.

Compulite Animator had it way back in the early '90s when scrollers were still dumb. Called DCC: Dark Color Compensator, or something like that.
