@ LAST enter. Recalls last intensity above zero.

  1. Ex. Channel 1201 @ last. Will bring that channel to the last value it was above zero.

    1201 @ enter would restore the last saved value, right? What they're asking for is to restore the last saved non-zero value, giving the LD/gaffer the ability to say "hey bring that light on to what we had it on last time," and the programmer the ability to do so without having to go into blind and search for the data.

    So when you say "last saved non-zero" and "go into blind to and search" are you looking for:
    1) The value that channels as set to prior to the last zero value (ie cue 1 thru 4 is at 50, cue 5 thru 10 is at zero, and you're in cue 10... this would recall the value of 50?)
    2) The value the channel was last recorded/updated at, regardless of where in the cue stack it was saved (cue 1 thru 4 is at 50, cue 5 thru 10 is at zero, cue 11 was just saved at 30... you're now in cue 6, and since 30 was the last saved value, you want to recall 30?)
    3) The value the channel was last set at, without regard to record/update (channel was most recently set at 10, 30, 50... and now at 40... LD calls for last, means it should now go back to 50?) -- as part of this one of the concerns is what should be considered the last value when an encoder wheel was used?

    In all three cases I can see these being considered the "last" value -- which one are you referring to?
