60.2.2 Fanning attributes and times by segments and groups
The fan toolbar has been enhanced to add support for fanning by segments and by groups.
When fanning by segments is selected then adjacent heads are adjusted by the same amount - e.g. when segments are set to 2 the
fan occurs with pairs of adjacent heads having the same adjustment.
When fanning by groups, the fan is performed on each group in turn as if the group contained the only selected heads. This
enables a fan to be simultaneously applied to groups of different sizes.
Fanning by segments overrides fanning by parts. Fanning by groups overrides fanning by parts or segments.
Fanning by segments and groups can be used on attributes values, and on times in the Programmer, View Times, Simple view
and Cue, View Times, Simple View.
In order to maintain compatibility with older versions and remote control, the new functions have been added to the existing fan
tool bar. Direct selection of fanning using 4 parts and 5 parts now can be done by typing 4 or 5 followed by the N parts fan.
Moving of Cues and Cue Stacks in the Cue Store and Stack Store
It is now possible to move Cues within the Cue Store and Stacks within the Stack Store even when they have been assigned to
Stacks and Playbacks.
A Cue can be moved in the Cue Store as long as the Cue is not active in the Cue Store and none of the Cue Stacks that uses the
Cue are active (on Playbacks, Execute or Stack Store).
A Cue Stacks can be moved in the Stack Store as long as the Cue Stack is not active (on Playbacks, Execute or Stack Store).
60.2.3 Other Changes
Support for Active FX whilst holding FX, press SET.
Moving Palettes entries in the Palette Window, Cues in the Cue Store and Stacks in the Stack Store now updates the links to these
items in the Execute Window. Previously the links would be lost and the Execute Window would no longer work as expected.
60.3 Bug Fixes
Fixed problem when using patch offsets. After startup / reset the first time the heads were activated in the programmer the values
would jump to an incorrect value.
When recording palettes, MagicQ now avoids making links to other palettes for pan and tilt if either the pan or tilt attribute has
been modified.
