Intensity Block

Create a Macro.

Well, I must admit that was an answer which i'd expect to read on the Blue Room, not here!

Yes, I could create a macro. I have several macros which do things like this.

For me though, creating a macro wouldn't be any more helpful. I have macros 801, 802 & 803 setup as snapshots. If I were to create a macro to do this it would take just as much time to access the macro (either by using direct selects or justing typing MACRO N ENTER) than it would it to type INTENSITY, BLOCK, ENTER.

As we now have a shiny new SHIFT button, which when pressed in conjunction with the BLOCK button currently performs the same function as not using the SHIFT button, I think that SHIFT + BLOCK would be useful for creating intensity blocks. 

I know it's a minor thing but I think it would be quite useful. 

Cheers, Andrew

A good idea, Andrew - one snag might be that there are other candidates for Shift-Block - such as Unblock or Block+Assert. I wonder if a consensus can be found?

Hi Andrew,

You'll be pleased to know It's coming... I suggested this a while back and it's on the list! It will be a big time saver, particularly on Gio and Ion.

Cheers

Jolly good idea i would vote in favour of intensity block. 

Unblock is potentially far more useful, as it's a feature we currently don't have....

Removing the toggle behaviour of Block and having a defined Block/Unblock command would make a lot of macros much easier...

You make a good point sir!
