Feature Request: Isolated Intensity Control in Absolute FX

I don't know how many times I've been running an absolute color effect on my LEDs, and the designer says, "I like this effect, but the Blue is too hot. Can you bring down the Blue part?" 

If the effect was built using color palettes, that means I have to darken my Blue color palette, which would affect cues all over my show. 

So it would be nice if there was a separate column for intensity in the absolute effect editor, where every step is "Bkgrd" by default, but I could throw in a discrete value on any action if need be.

    In 2.3 you can control the Scale of an Absolute effect in the ESD - so on a per Q basis. This will scale all of the attributes towards the background values - but is meant to address 90% of these kinds of issues.

    Your situation is a little complex. If it were me I would duplicate the FX and put the channels intensities in the sister FX and in those steps where it wants to be less or more you can control the intensities specifically. You have to run the Q to see it all "together" - but it's a quick way to copy/paste a bunch of timing.

    Not sure how scaling the entire effect will solve this problem. I'd say it's a pretty simple situation with a lot of equally time-consuming workarounds. As it stands, every time I build an absolute color effect, I have to built presets first with color and intensity, then build effects.
