More favorites !

[re.laxx]

Hi.

It would be nice if FS would have more than one favorite !
Like the yellow star, it could have a blue and a red one for example.

I worked on a room where there was a huge disco ball. And i used it as favorite for the first dance and saved it as favorite before the party.

But i would have use a second favorite for the entry of the married , or for a game, whithout building a new cue.

I don't really have much time at this moment of the party tu select one of my programs, so a quick click on one of the star would be nice. Also i am sure this is not unrealisable...

Telle me waht you think about it... no one have asked himself of this evolution ?
thanks for reading and answering !

way not just Create a sequence and put it on a Override button?
call Overide button 1 Yellow star, Overide button 2 Blue star , Overide button 3 Red star

This is exactly what buttons are for!
(Favourite is actually meant to put all channel values to 0).

Iw ould too use overised for this kind of request.
However favorite can be used for anything i use favorite for my default stage look when the guys are talking. That way ic an set my cuse and submasters up and then hit favorite and it goes back into my sequences. rather then just to zero, id call that blackout.

Doh?

Favorite means just that. A favorite scene. Like maybe a white out or something useful. Not set to zero out that would make no sense. As Matt said 'thats what blackout is for!'

NO guy's , Mattatone say's it allmost correct.

You can create your own Favorite, SO it's not a Second Blackout button.
and the blackout only closes the Shutter and Turns the dimmer off.
and if you like to have more blackouts, You can use the Blackout groups. only available with External control

but i don't use a favorite, i will make a Override button for that

This is how raph discribes it: (open FS go to Help -> Contents)
Favorite: Set your favorite value (is like blackout but with user defined values.

All my buttons are used.
I use them for colors, gobos, etc.
Each button corresponds to a Key on keyboard.

If i ask my light-jockey (wo is my wife too) for RED, she presses a key on keyboard which is paint in red, and every lights turn into red.

I didnt thought to create severals favorites in there. Thats an idea.
