Magic Screen Movement

1st off our Element 2's first show Mary Poppins, went off without a hitch. I was away and very nervous but director insisted we use it for her show as the Expression III was throwing an occasional tantrum. Godspell next - but my question; We all love the magic screen. However, the wretched mouse wheel is so sensitive we often accidentally brush it and whoosh, our display has shrunk or enlarged and I swear the screen has relocated without me holding the wheel down. Is there a "Lock" feature we can use to hold the picture? And/or is the a 'restore' button/menu item to bring the MS image to the center. I thought I'd seen this once but being absent = use it, or lose it!

  • Oh, Fine. Thanks. Feel lazy for not looking this up and shouting here but since being back have completely refurbished lighting booth with carpeted console desk etc and just put console back today. Could not have a smart new ELE2 sitting in a dungeon could we?

  • I also have a button on the magic sheet in a strong colour (so it can be seen if the screen is really small) that does a Magic_sheet 1 part 1   which is a saved viiew of the magic sheet position.

    I do that for 2 reason,  my view of zoom all is different to etc's in that I have a lot of stuff on the magic sheet and I dont want as big amount of screen empty around the sheet as zoom all.  

    Also I like to be able drag buttons from my magic sheet off the side of my sheet to hide them rather than deleting them as I may want to use them in the future and that would mess up the zoom all.
