pan / tilt during button

[moony_tinka]

Hello,

I'm new at using freestyler (and i think it is a good program to use).

But i'm getting a problem so i'm probably doing something wrong.

I have a few scanners (aztek dj scann mkII) and they are working fine. In freestyler you have the option to move your pan / tilt in a predifined figure (for example the circle or the flower). That is working fine! But in the buttons i put a few sequences to put the light on / strobe low / mid / high. When i select a button to for example put the light on the predifined figure stops and i have to turn it back on manualy.

Is there a way after selecting a button (and / or a sequence) that the pan / tilt keep on working without having to put it back on manualy??

Thanks for your help!

Best regards

try when setting up sequences for your buttons making sure that the strobe etc is the only thing that has fade or snap and set all the others to say OFF if they say snap or fade the will cancel everything running as the buttons get Priority over everything likewise if its off it doesnt meant it turns the pan/tilt etc etc off it just leaves it unchanged (i.e. running a shape in the background in the c ue list and using the strobe on the buttons set up as above will mean the shape wil carry on but the strobe will be active when you press a button)

i have sort of the same problem
i'm trying to make some cue's and add shortcut-buttons for it
i have an showtec titanstrobe 3000, 10 showtec-clubspot 250's & 16 jb-winner scans.
when i make a cue-scene for my strobe and ad it to a button
it stops all movement from my scans and moving heads,
i followed your advise by turning off the fade and snap on the scans and moving heads when i
create the scene but it doesn't resolve the problem.

does anybody have any suggestions?

only turn off all the features but the one you want to have working and the buttons only run static scenes i.e. just the 1st sequence

there are no bug reports coming in with that problem...

I just made the fixture file for my strob, and made scenes for it/assigned buttons probably like the people who opened this thread, and I have the exact same problem.

Set the scene to static mode.
Set the other fixtures channels to "off"
Re-saved the scene.
Re-assigned the scene to the button.

Clicking on the button starts the strob but also still stops every other movement. Can't see what's wrong.

To "logical" and "moony_tinka":

Assign your scan/moving heads sequences to a cue (or several ones, juste enable "cue multiselect always enabled" in the FS options if you have separate programs for the different fixtures for example).
Assign the strobe "scene" to an override button, scene in transparent mode (maybe works also in static mode but since you are adressing only the strobe I think it does not change much), and of course all channels of the other fixtures than the strobe to "off" in this scene.

Works fine here. Everything still stopping if in scene/sequence edit mode and pushing the strobe button, but not if the sequence is running in the cue mode.

I hope it is clear, if not ask again.
