"Release" macro with cue

Post by kwelch007 »

I have been using FreeStyler for a couple of months and love it! I've used LightJockey and various others, and like FreeStyler best...Kudos to the developers!!!!

That said, I can't seem to figure something out...I'm sure there's a way. I have two lights in particular (Chauvet Kinta and Oceana) that I have set up macros to turn on and off...that all works fine. However, for all of my other lights (which I don't use Macros for,) I have been able to create a cue to reset them to an "off" state. I have, however, been unable to find a solution to a problem that I've run into...

My question is this: how can I use a cue to "kill" a macro? When I attempt to do so using a cue, even when releasing over-rides, they don't get reset. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!
Kendell

Interesting...I just saved my Location, and it seems to work now. Possible bug?

OK...here's what I'm finding...I've kinda run into this before.

When using a cue that uses a sequence to release over-rides, it doesn't seem to work the first time. The second time I invoke a cue that releases over-rides, the release works as expected.

I am a developer, and offer to fix the problem, but would appreciate a little guidance as to where in the code to look.

Thanks!
