Problem using chases/cues in different locations

Post by Dangox »

Testfiles.zip
Hi there,
i´m trying since many hours to get around my problem and can´t find a workaround.

I´ve made for each of my fixtures a seperate location, with the purpouse of easier programming colors/movements/functios of the given fixture. So far within the fixtures location these programmed sequences all are working fine, when used in cues, ovveride buttons and submasters sections.

Now in "the workplace Location" all the fixtures are included, the Problem is, when i try to use the individual sequences, movements and so on in cues, override buttons and submasters, they won´t work.

When i make a sequence in the workplace location (a same as within of the fixtures location), it works fine.

How to get around that problem and use the same chasers/cues in any Location?

it feels like a bug.

i made a new location, inserted for testing a fixture, tested some sequences and cues - they work.
When i load now the "workplace Location" location and use the scenes/cues i used in the new location, they work now too! other, which i didnt use in the new location, don´t work.
now i setup a second fixture, pull some scenes for it to override-buttons, when pushed, the first fixture is triggered with the functions, which where before on the given buttons. if a scene of the second fixture is placed on a new never before used button, nothig happens on pushing it.

Next i completly removed all fixtures from setup, and the given overide button still are working :roll: !?!

seems like a bug? maybe it has to do with the new .chs chaser-format?

I'm trying to understand your issue, but honestly I'm a bit confused with all the separate locations you are creating, can you make a short video?

Sorry for the late answer, I was in 'lockdown' mode until recently :-)

The problem still prevails and i just remembered this thread after making a new topic on the same issue:
