I have a fogger - Involight 900 DMX.
I create new fixture(Fogger-Hazer).
But button "Fogger control" can't control my fogger.
If I move dimmer "Fog" - it works correctly.

What should I do to make the Fogger Control button control my fog machine?

try switching channels 1 and 2 in fixture creator and see if that makes any difference. I have not even used the newest version so am not familiar with bugs or additions.
I have 3.61 of software running on about 12 different systems without any major issues or bugs that I have found. Fogger works perfect on 3.61. All clubs are shut down in Texas so have not touched a system in a couple months. I will setup something with the newest version and attempt to help solve these issues.

Ok, i changed my fixture settings(like in you fixture) and now "Fog" button works correctly:
Fog / Level ch = 1
Fan channel = 2
And i delete all "Custom sliders".
Thank you!

Look in "show output" and try with the fog machine slider if the fog machine channel is OK. Pay attention if they are colored boxes (corrections or disabled channel).
If it's work, try the fog button and see what the "show output" tell you.
If the fog machine doesn't work, right click on your fixture, go to edit and check how your fixture is configured. Some Fixture profiles can be misconfigured if the creator use the "custom fixture" in place of the "fogger-hazer" type at creation.

Thanks you, but I already try your suggestion, when I change fog machine slider, the show output react well, but if I change from fog panel, the show output cannot react at all. I use from fog ZR-33, from the fixture library.

In the fog menu, the fog slider set the fog level you will have when the fog is activated.
You have two mode :
- if the check box "continuous operation" is not set (fog machine), the press the "fog" button is a flash button. You will have fog only when the button is pressed.
- If the check box "continuous operation" is set (hazer), one click enable the fog machine to the set level, an other shut it down.
You have also a timer mode to make haze with fog machine.
