Magic Sheet Request

Mark, setting an object as output will be included in the 2.1 release.

Hope that helps.

Hey Anne,

I think what Mark is asking for is being able to link an object to an address, but still display the channel that that address is patched to.

So if address 1/1 is patched to channel 5, the MS object's target would be address 1/1, but the object would display "5" instead of its Target ID.

If that address was later patched to channel 1, that same MS object would display "1".

I don't believe that's a simple as setting an object's target to an output. :-(

Hi Paul,

Our current implementation of this in 2.1.0 beta should cover this case.  You can set an item to be an "Address" now, and we've added the additional Fields: Channel, Address, Port/Offset, DMX, and DMX Bar.  Meaning, you can have an Address based item that only shows the Channel number.  (You can also have a Channel based item that shows the Address number).  Color/Intensity linking will also continue to work if the address can be tied back to a patched channel.

While having the channel update with the patch change would be awesome, simply being able  to choose an address as a target would solve my issues. Thanks Anne. I will look forward to the update.

Hey awesome.  That all sounds great, Chris.

Looking forward to it.
