Bug: Home instruction on color will not reflect in MS

Hi,

I tried this out in v3.1.2 and couldn't make the issue happen.  My Channel always returns to Home in the MS.  I made an example showfile with a SolaFrame 750 as the fixture.  Snapshot 1 lets you change colors and see the MS.

CMY Color Home Example 2022-07-13 15-52-55.esf2

Could you send us an example where this is not working for you that we can work from?

The fixture I used was an Ayrton Eurus on extended mode. How does it behave when you try that one?

I get the same result as before with the Ayrton Eurus.  The MS shows the change of color immediately.  Could you provide an example showfile where you see this issue?

Thanks for checking, I’ll get back to you with my file later today.

Here's the file. The issue is only present Stóra 2022-2023 2022-07-13 15-38-06.esf3dthere.

Aha,

the Hue&Saturation is not changing with the Home Command.
It stays put at the last Value, while RGB is changing as expected.

This can also be seen in other Fixtures. Like the ColorSource PAR.

In a new showfile this behaviour can be seen as well (H&S are showing the last Color after Homing the Fixture). But the Magicsheet changes the Color...
Strange.

Hmm, when homing, the actual fixtures will definitely home the color - so is it just a matter of the internal processing (Hue/sat, magic sheets) not picking up on the home command? Not at the console right now, but I would expect CIE graphs to not show white after homing.

you are right
