LEDs fade intensity to white then change color

Hi,

New hog III user here, running through the manual and trying to build my first show. I'm wondering if somebody can help me with a problem I'm having with LED wash lights.

I'm trying to create a simple set of color cues @ 100% intensity with a 2s linear fade. I've managed to write them in CMY so they fade nicely with no ugly white transitions between them, however when I activate or release the cue they first turn white before fading on or off.

Ideally what I'm hoping to do is have one cue for colors, the next cue for intensity effects on these lights. Is there a better way to set this up? How do I get rid of this white intensity fade?

Thank you for any assistance!

    I wish I had playback hardware - I do at a club I work at, but not here at home (until I decide which console to purchase)

    Maybe you would have a trick to make this work? In another thread discussing virtual cuelists -

    "if you don't have a physical master use virtual lists instead. you may want to create lists with only one cue each. Open the list options and go to the properties pane and set the action at the end of list as Add release end cue. This way the first touch triggers the cuelist and the second one releases it. It's a very nice toggle feature. Adjust your realease and assert time as you want them to be. Remember to turn the guard soft button off, otherwise you will not be able to trigger your lists via touchscreen. if you click on one list cell and hold it down you're basically able to adjust the effect rate the same way you do by holding down the choose button for a physical master. Another interesting trick is that you can release virtual cuelists without necessarely realeasing cuelists attached to physical master. Hold down the list button and the release button straight after to get rid of only virtual cuelists. Hope this helps" - forums.highend.com/showthread.php?t=7853

    Virtual cuelists seem to be an awesome way to adding various effects (like quick strobes on my LED bars, etc. without "wasting" an entire fader) Is there some way to hold down a cuelist and turn a virtual nob at the same time, without hardware? The shift key isn't doing it.
