+The color in the CMY-RGB tab is however not set because there then will be two color filters on the top of each other.  \\
+The CMY colors can be noted and set on other fixtures which don’t have the correct color on the color wheel.\\

+Note: The color is sampled from the fixed color. This gives the possibility for errors. The fixed color and the color icon may not have same shade. And if the “Static Color” icon is pressed then CMY will try to create a gray shade as the icon is mainly gray.\\
