Relative color faders

Post by CaptainBetty »

I love freestyler and am finally getting the hang of it.

One feature I'd like to see implemented is relative sliders when choosing colors.

Often I find myself needed to set an RGB value but don't want it at 100% (as in the case on the Chauvet 4bars - in order to set each can's brightness you can only affect the color's strength). So I'd like to be able to set the color then holding down CTRL or whatever key, slide them up or down and the values change in proportion.

Right now, if you hold down the SHIFT KEY and drag the sliders, they all assume the same value as you go up or down (making white).

for multi function fixtures, why not have a "grouping" option for each slider you can throw in a group or lock them together then when you slide them they all move in proportion.

Or maybe by default, Freestyler automatically groups the RGB channels together and when using SHIFT+DRAG moves them in proportion.

you can also use the submasters to do this.

if you create a Sequence with RGB channels on SM1 and create a Dimmer sequence on SM2 you can set the brightness with the Submaster2 Intensitie slider.
