Channel-patching works for 50% ?

Hi,
in case of some problems (read "missing pictures") i decidet to do some tests.

So first i have switched to Version f. Anything runs fine.

I got some LED RGB ParCans. The DMX400 in the f-Version did not longer support RGB fixtures. But i want to use them with the DMX400. So i got the Idea to use the possibility to pacht some channels.

I have patched all the Intensity-Channels (original: 11/23/35/47) to 80/81/82/83. So all channels are in a row and fine for the DMX 400. Set the startchannel of the DMX400 to 80 and the number of channels to 4.

And? It works! Very fine with the the DMX 400. All other Vallues (R/G/B/Strobe) i can chance with all the other things in FS.

But why is there no way to change the Dimmerlevel of the LED PAR in FS? I only can do that now in the dmx 400.

Excuse my bad english. But i hope you understand what i mean.

Greatings Kai-Uwe

There is,
Either use the intensity channel in the lamp window.
intensity on the submasters or use the master fader.
I would like a fader to be added into the RGB colour picker that adjusts all 3 channels together relative.
so at 50% all channels reduced by 50%, 100% channels not affected. at 0% all channels reduced by 100% (so Off)

RE Read:
Do you mean when you patch fixtures the panels no longer work for that fixture I.e Intencity RGB etc?
