Hide unused groups?

I don't remember if this has been brought up before, but we have a designer that likes to set up groups like:

  • Group 1= chan 1-10
  • Group 11= chan 11-14
  • Group 201= chan 201-223
  • etc.

As a result, the group direct selects aren't very useful when it comes to writing cues as you have to page up and down a lot.  It would make things a lot faster if we could "flexi" the direct selects.  What about an option to hide unused groups on the direct selects?

Just a thought...

  • As an alternative, assuming, of course, that what your asking is not doable with the current software, perhaps you could make Group 1 Channels 1-10, Group 2, channels 11-14, and then label them "Group 1" and "Group 11".

    This might, of course, get confusing if you want to recall them from the command line, but as far as using the direct selects, should produce a comparable effect to a flexi-view direct selects.

    To build upon Rueben's creative work around, I would suggest making the groups as the LD requests and then copying them to groups 0.01>0.99 ,assuming there are not more than 99 groups (group 1 copy to 0.01, group 11 copy to 0.02, etc). This way you can have them at the top and in order of your Direct Selects, *and* you can call them up from the command line.

    At least until we get flexi-DS...
