A couple of Hog3PC questions

Hi,

I've been learning Hog3PC "under fire" and have most things figured out so far. But I have a couple of questions:

1 - In the cue list Fade column some cues have multiple times separated by commas. I have not figured out how you create or edit these entries so I was wondering where I should look in the manual for how these are added or changed. I'm assuming that they are fade in / fade out times.

2 - Is there a way to have a "show" cue list and within that cue list have "sub" cue lists that would be individual show numbers? For example one of our shows is a broadway style 50s though 80s musical performance and it is updated often with new numbers. If it is possible to have a cue list that goes song/dance number by song/dance number with each entry causing the full cue list for the associated song/dance number to be invoked that would make things easier when the show changes. Is this possible using Hog3PC, and if so what is the best way to do it?

Thanks,
Burt

    Thanks,

    I'm probably still missing something on trying to use the Comment Macro.

    I did a quick test:

    I have the main cue list that is the current show. This cue list is assigned to Fader #10 on the console.
    I created a new cue list #100 that contains a copy of one of the songs from the current show.
    I added a new cue 47.1 in the main show cue list and added a Comment Macro to the Macro field I tried GL100/1 Which I thought would access the new cue list #100 and start the first cue. But that does not happen. It is as if the macro is not being invoked when I step into the 47.1 cue.

    The documentation appears to have a bit of a circular reference in that the Comment Macro section refers back to another section for triggering macros from a Cue and that section says to see the section on Comment Macros.

    What am I missing to have the Comment Macro run the cue list for the song, and then resume back in the main cue list?

    Thanks again,
    Burt
