User palettes

The user palettes are accessible from the menu of most of the fixture controls (except lamp control,

and pan/tilt controls) and offer a quick way of assigning predetermined values to the fixture controls.

Note that the user palettes may not be available for fixture types.

User color palette

When using palettes please observe the following:

1. When assigning a user palette entry to a fixture the actual values are assigned, not a reference.

This means that if a palette entry is changed - this change will not affect scenes and sequences

already programmed with the old values.

2. The fade state of each of the effects is saved together with the actual values. When applying the

palette values, only entries with a fade state of fade or snap will be applied. This way it is possible to

create palettes covering a sub-set of the palette functions, making it possible to create combinations

of palette entries of same type; for example separate entries for iris and for focus even though they

both are beam controls.

3. Palettes must be manually updated when new fixtures are added or modified in the fixture

configuration.

Fixture selection filter

Use the fixture selection buttons in the lower left to decide which fixtures to include when creating,

modifying or applying palette entries:

Master fixture - applies values to the entry for the master fixture only

Selected fixtures - applies values for all selected fixtures

All Fixtures - applies values for all fixtures

Creating and modifying user palette entries

Program the contents of a user palette entry in the current scene and click Save. To modify an

existing entry, highlight it first before saving. In the save dialog, click Save as New to save as a new

entry, or Save to modify an existing entry.

Using palette entries

To apply a palette entry to one or more fixtures, first select the fixtures then either highlight the entry

and click Assign, or simply double click the entry. Note that the fixture selection filter is also applied

when assigning palette entries.

Clear

Clicking the Clear button will clear values from selected fixtures if the values are identical with the

values contained in the palette entry.
