ML Panel v Profile

Modes are monsters! (at the moment anyway). I put together a very simple experiment. My "Exp1" fixture has 3 parameters. Chan 1 is Intensity. 2 is a "Color Select" with 2 modes based on virtual parameter 3 "Color Wheel Mode". This has 'Select' and 'Rotate' labels. Back in #2 the 1st mode has a few parameters for color selection and some more for rotation. All is well and good. The 'fixture' is patched and in live selected.

In my Color Select panel in the ML I see Select and Rotate fine. And with Select highlighted am free to choose Red, Green or Blue and then see the values change in the appropriate DMS address. But, I cannot select the Rotate cell to see my 'Spin Fast', 'Stop' and 'Spin Slow' choices. That side of the panel (Select Rotate) is locked? It's a big picture that I hope lays things out to be easily understandable.

  • Excellent. Making your changes sorted it all out. Is it always the case that these ranges should match. And, when I tried to edit I got the "can't edit this parameter". The only way I could unhook the parameter was to delete the modes in the wheel mode parameter and wipe out everything! Is there a way that I can 'unhook' the Color Select from the Wheel mode without having to delete all the contents? I.E. Just remove the conditional statement temporarily. Now I have to put this in bench notes. if you're not doing this stuff everyday it's easy to forget.
