Fat Frog Shape Generator

Hi,

 

Having upgraded to V10.4 software, I discovered the following problem.

 

A shape transferred onto a submaster will not stop running, even after the sub is returned to zero, and a new static position is called up from the pallette. The shape does seem to use the new position as it's starting point (which could be usefull)

 

The only way to halt the chase is to program another sub with a "blank" shape: no x or y value, zero speed, and so on. After a quick stab at the flash button on this sub, the chase stops.

 

Any ideas ?

Hi Matt

 

This is the intended functionality for the Shape generator. You need to program either a palette or submaster with the shape parameters tagged at '0 / No Effect'. The reason your position palettes aren't stopping the shape is that when you programmed the palettes you hadn't tagged the shape parameters for programming.

 

To alter the tag status of elements of a fixture, hold down WHEEL GROUP and nudge the wheel for the parameter you wish to exclude from programming (the LCD will change to - - -).

 

Hope this helps
