Any particular reason why inhibs can't hold their values on page changes? This is seriously getting under my skin. I shouldn't need to dedicate a wing to inhibs I MAY have to change during a show. :angryfire:
I also like to see an option to track submasters across pages. And as an option that you can put submasters on a virtual playback bar and adjust the level by holding down the virtual master and adjust the level by one of the enoder wheels. As we can with ceu-lists. It's strange that it works for cue-lists and not for a sub/inhibited master.
Michael, we had this discussion during LDI with Jonathan. And yes, you might then not know why a fixture ist not outputing what you brought up in the programmer or so. But as you see this is really a feature a lot of people use and should really be there. Ok, I can put it on a template page, etc etc. I know all workarounds... Bring this feature or like discussed virtual faders... or better: BOTH
To further go on about "not knowing why something isn't coming up in the programmer" multiple other consoles have solved with this INFORMATION read outs on the output window .. change the color of an inhib output ... issue solved.
I guess the main reason for why they are not allowed background is that Group/Inhibitive faders are the only faders that affect programmer. It really can cause a lot of trouble. What solutions do we have? -indicator in programmer that the fixtures are limited by group fader -a group fader that does not affect programmer -a way to override group faders in the programmer
other suggestions? Cause when it's going to happen it has to be something clever. So I encourage everyone who wants the feature to think about how to handle the side effects.
I like the idea of an option in the preferences panel to whether its values inhib the progammer. otherwise, I want it overriding everything, like a normal inhib works
I think when you are using an inhibitive fader, you are aware of using that kind of fader, and they do affect the programmer and output because you want to. A pink background with fat flashing purple characters can help you to remind that you are using inhibits... For me, when i have a page with inhibits, it is clear that i want this to affect the output and programmer! So it makes sense to have an option in the preferences to check or uncheck this option.
