Preserve native should move to Attributes tab

Preserve Native (in Patch) should move to the Attributes sub tab. Its setting is affecting only things in that tab, and none in the tab where it is currently in (Patch ->P atch sub tab)

    I am talking about the Attributes tab inside the patch window. The setting "Preserve Native" only affects things that are in the Attributes tab, so it does not make sense for it to be in another tab. It would be better to see with setting is current when you make a change to these attributes. 

  • Patch > Patch "{Preserve Native}
    When Preserve Native is enabled, and you make changes to patch, your cues' real world levels (like pan degrees) will be converted so that the DMX output is preserved instead of the degrees. This is primarily useful for fixture substitutions."

    I think there is a misunderstanding on this function but for me, "Preserve native" affects dmx levels when changing fixture types. Why do you want to move it to attributes tab?

  • I am really curious why there was a downvote on this idea? Could you please elaborate? Or is it out of pure conservatism/muscle memory?
