selection blind mode / non blind mode. BUG?

Hey Guys

scenario:
I have a cuelist running on cue1 (choosen master).
I want to select all fixtures with color 1 in cue 2 (but cue 2 is NOT running).

in NONE BLIND mode:
i select CUE 2 - COPY - ENTER .... LIVE - COLOR 1 - ENTER

All is good.

in BLIND mode:
i select BLIND - CUE 2 - COPY - ENTER .... LIVE - COLOR 1 - ENTER

Only a few of my expected fixtures are selected.

Is that a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Regards
and happy easter

  • I just tried it out...

    And I see what your saying..

    It's not a bug as the live/color1/enter syntax is only suposed to select what is live onstage or being seen on the output window. It works in non blind mode because the programmer is "Live", but as soon as you goto blind mode, the programmer is no longer "Live" and the /Live/color2/enter/ syntax will sellect the fixtures in the programmer that are currently "live" (from cue 1) using the color1 palette.

    So in a nutshell everything is working as it was designed......

    Now, I see your goal here.. and that is to be able to sellect and edit descretely (in blind mode) a set of fixtures in a cue that is not yet being played back that is using a specific color palette. I just spent a couple minutes infront of the desk trying to figure out how to do it and haven't been able to come up with a solution.

    Will report back if I stumble across a specific workflow and syntax.
