Patch Offset

It would be nice to be able to define an offset in patch for various paramaters. Specificaly for pan tilt this would be super helpful. Imagine a fixture was hung 90° the wrong way, in patch you could set a pan offset of -90. Then pan 0 is where you expect it to be.

Just an idea,

You could create a custom fixture profile where the DMX output is offset by that 90 degrees, or whatever is appropriate in your situation. The other way is that you can bulk edit your presets/palettes…

The problem is, that the Fixture can not move the hole 270° in both directions.
So setting a 0 point is false.

Rather use a Self defined Home Preset for the fixtures you like to correct.

I get that, but I would use this more in the scenarios where I have 50+ focus pallets that all need to be updated the same amount. I would imagine it would handle limmits the same way relitive effects do when it hits a physical end of movement, it stops physycaly but continues virtualy. It's not very often I find myself needing evey last degree of pan and in many scenarios the offset would never put me in danger of hitting a physical limmit. Many other console manufactures have successfully deployed this feature and I would love to see it on the eos platform.
