How much do we pay you @Edward Z88 to sit next to you at the production desk and absorb all this wisdom?! 😅 I've just recently finished a week of 'The Wind In the Willows' on the FLX, and although it was relatively a pain free experience, I still felt awfully clunky programming - practice makes perfect and all that..! It was quite the beast for me, a new venue to LD in, ~200 fixtures in total, resulting in about ~200 cues by the final performance!

I think this is all totally valid. These are cases where SmartTag is a nuisance, but, as you say, changing the SmartTag logic here means it is no longer consistent. This is something we are working through internally. Personally, I very rarely program with SmartTag enabled. The only time I'll enable it is if I want to update a cue to remove attribute values for fixtures @ 0%, for example, to allow Move On Dark to take affect. Which is easy: Go into the cue > UPDATE > SmartTag > ENTER.

Thanks Ed. I will read through this and have a play, much appreciated. Good luck with the production you are working on. Sounds pretty complex !!

Yea Edward, but you're some kind of super-human lighting programmer that works with the FLX 8 hours plus a day every day, and know the thing inside better than we know the outside! 🥰
