used channels

Is there a way to make a list (print out) of all used channels WITHOUT the channels at zero?

thanks

  • Morning.  Not at the moment.  At the beginning of the .pdf is a list of all used channels.  Because a channel stored at zero (which is a used channel) is considered differently than a channel with a "null" ... or no value at all.   Can I ask why you end up with channels stored at zero that never move higher than zero?

    Thanks,

  • I was looking for unused channels this morning, and found two probable sources of channels stored at 0 that never move higher than 0.  The first were some clearly dyslexic channels, e.g. 89 is a channel in the show, 98 is unpatched but has a 0 value in a cue.  I believe that the channel was brought up, either via designer or programmer error, and we put it [out] instead of [undo] or [at] [enter].  The hard 0 got recorded in the cue.  

    The other were channels that were part of a group but not used.  When I took the group out, which included some inactive channels, the inactive channels got recorded as hard zeros.

    I couldn't find a way to query these (though querying Cue first thru enter showed the obviously errant channels).  Going through and cleaning up all the partial blocks got rid of the zero-only channels.
