Fixture Creator - dimmer macros

Post by p.k.roberts »

Would it be possible to put back the ability to create macros for dimmers as on previous versions? I used to use these quite a lot for pre-heat, testing/focus etc. Also useful when using switch-packs, where a 'button' is much more use than a fader.
Cheers.

I think it is still possible to create a fixture which is a dimmer. when in fixture creator slect custom instead of dimmer and the macros should still show.

Yes, that is a way to work around this, but it is a bit 'messy' and it seems a shame to have lost the function that was there on previous versions.
