Bug?: Element Color Picker

Currently working on an Element v2.3.3.
When I select a group of LEDs, change their color with the color picker, and select a new group of LEDs (which are in a completely different color from the first group), the color picker doesn't jump to the color of the new group. And when I attempt to adjust saturation using the Saturation bar, it jumps the second group to the color of the first group.
Using both "Group" and channel selection.
Feature? Bug? Anybody have a work around?
Thanks!

  • Hello!

    What type of fixture are you trying to control?
    Is there any overlap between the groups?

    Thank you,
  • They're custom Source 4 LED fixtures. We have a combination of first and second gen fixtures in the plot so I created a fixture with a dummy parameter in the white and lime slots respectively in order for the units to match.

    And no overlap. The channels and groups that the color picker is functioning properly for are ColorSource Pars and VL880s, all using the profiles from the fixture library.

    So far I'm thinking it either has to do with custom fixtures in general or this specific custom fixture.
    The fan control parameter is also showing up as a Color parameter too...which seems a little odd to me but I could see some rationale for that.
  • that the fan is a color parameter is on purpose (so u can use color palettes to control it along with the color itself).
    i guess your custom fixtures are the problem. the color picker on it's own can't handle white or lime. their behaviour is special cased into the fixture profiles. and this gets lost when you edit it...
