Macro to delete AllNp's

Do you program in 'Cue Only' mode?  If so, that is likely your problem.. Learn to program in 'Tracking' and you won't get unneeded NPs saved.

Thank you for responding.  I need to keep Tracking turned off, as we have several student programmers, and we do not record cues in order.  Sometimes we don't even play them back in order.   So, Yes, we program in Cue Only mode.

[Select active] (or Shift Select Last - Sotftkey Select All) [Intensity] Record Only Cue X

the question i have for you is, where do the NIP come from and why shouldn't they be recorded?

My advice, similar to krabe's one is 'selective recording'.

I have several student programmers, switching places often.  At times one will be working with automated fixtures, and leave NP in place, and the next will start recording with conventional instruments, say, houselights.  The NP's get recorded into the houselight cues.  I am searching for a way to run a macro to simply clear any and all NP, each time they switch places.  Thanks.

1. If you have Students, you can teach them the magic of Selective Recording.
2. if you hit [sneak][sneak] the command line will post "AllNPs Sneak". That could be written in a macro.
3. You can use Partitions/Users to separate the Dimmers from the Multi-effect Lights

This sounds worth a try.  Thank you.   This is meant to be a typed command, and not a macro, correct?

it's a typed command that you could learn in a macro

I have no way of entering [Intensity]  as a command. What am i missing?

Easiest way to accomplish this is to learn your macro!
Using the [Learn] Key (etcconnect.com)

Click on Intensity in bottom left of your screen to put it on your command line

If you are in the Macro Editor, you can use the search function
Or have a look at your Monitors down left corner.

Both are locations to find Intensity
