Beam Time for gobo change on Mac2k

Could someone please tell me the correct way to slowly change a gobo from one to another on a Mac2k Profile - using either the beam time in user mode, or editing the time in the cue editing window.

Working with the desk last night we could not figure out the correct way to do this.

We tried setting the time using the beam time with a cue time of 0s, and a time in the cue, we also tried changing the gobo time in the cue editor and changing the beam time in the cue editor - long story short, the gobo snaps to the next gobo no matter what we do.

Also tried using the encoder to set the gobos vs the gobo 'quick' selection.

    The problem is just getting the gobo to not snap in the cue. It's not about -when- the gobo snaps to the next slot. We just want it to slowly change from one gobo to another over the course of 5 seconds.

    What would recording it all in a scene do differently from putting it into a cue? I will still go try this, I just don't know what the overall goal of the test is.

    I am really looking for the correct syntax/method (that is known to work in other instances) on changing the gobo slowly at a given rate. A Mac2k profile has an effects time channel to control the gobo time - how do I properly use this in a Hog3 environment.
