Issues with existing profiles

Mac Quantum Wash EXT

From a question that came up on the Facebook programmers page, but I thought I post it here for you to check and fix at your leisure[;)]

A quick look into the fixture profile in EOS Nomad offline revealed, that all the Colour Parameter are labeled the same. I made a copy of the fixture profile and renamed the RGB param's to red 2,3,4 etc and a check in Capture Polar shows that I have now control over the individual colours segments.
You can download the showfile containing the new fixture from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/3byxfej8inodbee/Mac%20Quantum%20Ext%20Fixed%202014-10-24%2012-18-46.esf?dl=0

Hello, Florian:

At this time Eos Family consoles do not support individual LED cell control outside of pixel mapping.  This is on the list for future features.

While your solution may work, you may also find that it makes some features like HS fading and gel matching fail to work.  

Thank you,

Hi Sasha,

Thank you for your reply. Whilst I am aware of the HS fade downside, I never enable it. I like to know that I am not fading thru green. [;)]

Also, the way I look at it, one is not controlling individual cells, you are controlling multiple parts of a fixture, like for example the Mac Aura. Denying access to those features of a fixture might be  a bit irritating for the less experienced user, ( not knowing how to enable ( edit) a fixture template), or somebody who got those fixtures just for the ability to have three different rings of colour.....

Just my 2p
