Utilization Report

Found a bit of a bug this week on a PDF print-out from the console.

I was only looking at the Preset utilization of the document, but found a number of incidents where a channel that was definitely used in a Preset in the show, was showing up under the 'Channels Not Referenced by any Cue' section.

As I was about to use it as a reference to what needed to be updated (a bar was about to change height and needed refocusing), it was a bit of a worry.

Anne, I believe you already have my showfile from Crispy, but will happily send it to you again if needs be, Just thought it useful to alert people, to not necessarily trust the print-outs at the moment.

On a complete aside note....in 1.8, if I record a New Preset and then hit Mark I get bad syntax (ie it doesn't re-select my last channels, it selects my Last Preset). However, if I UPDATE a Preset then hit Mark it does what I want and selects the channels I've updated. Hmmmm.....which is correct? I'd love it to be that after a Preset Record I can hit Mark straight away, as that's how I tend to work building the Cues with marks as I go.

Cheers

  • A utilization report, by definition, reports the utilization of all patched channels.  This includes information on channels that do not move above zero.

    Are you looking for a list of only the channels that have intensities above zero?  If so, you want to print a "Show Channels" pdf.  This is a separate option in the print reports display.
