As a learning test, I created a simple Sequence, 3 light changes, tested in Sequence, all colors changed, even disabled the Fades, so lights changed quickly. I brought that saved sequence into Cue, hit the play button, all worked as expected, forwards, backward, random, etc.... nice...
Ok, heres the "stupidity" part. Next day I start again, to make sure I know what Im doing, I create another sequence, 6 steps, and again all plays correctly from the Sequence. I at that point save a new .chb file and saved to the current cuelist.
So I open up the Cue program, .chb file is in the list. I hit play on that file, and nothing, no light change, no showing the light change display on the selected fixture in the software. I know its something stupid im missing, where I got it to work correctly the first time, but these last 5 attempts, have come up with no changes in Cue. They play correct in Sequence, but nothing in Cue.
It worked correctly the first time, just not since. Any thoughts on what I could be missing?

Re: Sequence/Cue stupidity....
Maybe I should have worded this differently. I have what I needed programmed into the Sequencer part, all is cool.. individual lights on different channels doing different things. Pressing for forward/backward buttons, or the "play" button, all works flawlessly, different colors, not all the same color (finally). Its when I import this saved sequence, the .chb file, into Cue, when I hit play there, the numbers turn showing its changing, but the colors on the lights themselves dont change. Awesome in Sequence Program, not so much in Cue.

Re: Sequence/Cue stupidity....
I'm not sure, but I think it may be something I've seen as well... Do you have the sequence editor *and* the cuelist on-screen at the same time...? If so, the sequence editor may say "offline mode". If this is the case, I'm sure I've seen a situation where nothing happens to M3D or live to output.... but I may be wrong Close the sequence editor and try again
