Color labelling

A while ago I remember a discussion requesting the facility to set custom background colors to pallets as you can label folders on the Mac. As an enhancement it struck me it would also be useful to extend this to the patch view. When dealing with large numbers of RGB cells it would help identify real world fixture start addresses, giving the ability to highlight in groups of 18 etc.

  • Yeah Sami...... Thats a sort of good Idea.

    Say I have 2 fixture types in my show.
    Lets say Mac 500 and Mac600.

    Mac 500 only has colour slots where as the 600 has CMY
    So i'd have for the 500
    8 pallets for each wheel
    and for the 600 i'd have many more cos of the CMY.

    So when i select fixtures/groups with only the 500's
    Only the pallets with them included show
    and the same for 600's

    The only problem I see with this is that of you
    for example if you get used to where one colour is for one fixture is and then select another fixture you hit the same place where the pallet was for another fixture, but it's a different colour.

    Does what I just said make any sense to anyone?????


    Anders,
    Yeah that would make a lot of sense, Having a rainbow image for more than 2 colours in a pallet for say.

    It would be nice to be able to have images to represent out gobos in fixtures etc.
    And then I could go on to talk about having Hog3 (if connected on the same network as Catalyst/DL.2/Axon to download little previews the files and folders........ but this is a little off topic so I'll bring this up in abother thread.
