Went through the process of creating a custom fixture this afternoon and came across a couple of issues that I was wondering about.
1) I didn't see a place to specify the attribute of Lamp controls. If I have a channel on the fixture that is dedicated to to resetting the fixture, turning the lamp on and off, etc, How do I get those control functions to show up in the lamp controls area of the fixture like all of the predefined fixtures?
2) Couple of small things - In the manual it even says that the attributes are supposed to be in alphabetical order, but I don't at all get how that is based upon what I was seeing today. There didn't seem to be any real order that I could discern. Am I just not seeing the actual pattern here?
Also - When editing the ranges, it looks like you are working in a spreadsheet. Toward that end, it would seem intuitive that you would be able to move through the cells with the arrow keys - which you can. However, it would also seem intuitive that you would then be able to hit the enter button to edit the cell - but doing so takes you out of the fixture editing window completely. Maybe this is jus the way I work though....
It would also be nice to be able to copy and paste an attribute. For instance, if I have two gobo wheels and they both have the same ranges and user values assigned to them, having to create them twice is kinda a pain... If i could just copy the first one to the second one and then edit the names it would be nice. Then again, I don't know how often you would run into this kind of set up so it may not be worthwhile to write this code....
It seems as if there was something else as well, but I can't remember it right now. All in all, though, it was very easy and straightforward. Very well done.
