We have had many ideas and requests from customers for additional features like these. In fact, the shutter blades that you are referring to are already logged into our system as enhancement request #8356.
The problem that we have to deal with in doing things like this is it will add more channels to the DL.2 DMX protocol. Currently, with the 170 channels that the DL.2 uses, you can fit three DL.2s per universe of DMX. Adding just one more channel would make it so only two DL.2s would fit on a universe (171 channels per fixture x 3 = 513 channels. too many for one universe). Shutters could add up to 16 channels.
We will always explore new features in the future, and we always log ideas from customers into our system. Keep the ideas coming. :cool:
