[Feature Request] Add Groups To "Live" Filter Syntax

It would be great if the group directory items were associated with "Live" masking just like all the other palette items are...

So if you wrote, "Live/Group1", then all the fixtures that were onstage above 0 intensity and in group1 would be sellected in the programmer.

Or, "Live/Group1/Color1/Beam1", would sellect in the programmer all fixture onstage that were in group1, above 0 intensity, using color1 and beam1.

Right now, when I try to add a group comment into the "Live" syntax, it throws a red line error at me.

You think you guys could add the group comment into the live syntax line? It would give us alot more functionality when masking a sellection from whats onstage?

  • In the current manual for H4 at section
    15.1 Selecting from What is Onstage



    There is instructions that the Live/Group function should work in the syntax...

    You can use the Live and / keys together to select fixtures that are both live on stage and in a specified fixture selection:

    Live 1 Thru 5 selects fixtures that are in the range 1 to 5 that are live on stage.


    Live / Group 1 selects fixtures that are in Group 1 that are live on stage.

    Now when I try the syntax "Live/Group1" it brings up group 1 if it is live onstage, but as soon as I try to do multiple masks in the same syntax line containing any "/group" comment, I get a red error syntax indicator.

    All of the other directory items (except Group) work as they are suposed to when combined in a multiple, single line syntax for "Live" mask selection, as well as all of the function modifiers to make the selection change logic (The "+" for "OR" and the "/" for AND).

    Can someone from HES please let me know if I am missing something in the syntax to be able to succsesfully include a Group Palette into the syntax for live masking?
