Blind With Defaults

Hi,

When working in Blind mode, it would be really helpful to have an option to toggle "Use Default Values" On/Off.

The use case:

Sometimes when programming in Blind, we want it to behave as a true blind environment—meaning the values we apply should not reference current output values, but instead start from default values (as if the fixture had never been touched).

This is especially useful when building new cues from scratch or reprogramming sections without inheriting unintended values from what's live.

Suggested Implementation:

  • A simple toggle:
    [ ] Use Default Values in Blind Mode

  • When enabled, programming in Blind refers to default fixture values, not current output or tracked values.

  • When disabled, Blind behaves as it currently does—referencing live/tracked output as the starting point.

  • Could reference the stored defaults option too

Thanks for considering it!
