Locked Pallets; "homing" a selected fixture?

Recommended Posts

Last week I was working with a band from the Netherlands (Di-Rect) and they we're using a Jands desk for operating. I saw a really cool feature which could be a real hit if you implement it into the frog desks.

The lighttech. had some pallets (or the Jands-equivalent) for his programs. Of course he was editing them before the show to make 'em right. He could do this by selecting a pallet in some kind of edit-mode, and the fixture selected would home in color and beamshape parameters, making it really easy to locate the fixture and program the right position.

When the next update will provide a pallet-lock option, maybe another button in that mode would represet "pallet edit" and this function would become reality?

I don't think it's a load of programming work, and it would be really cool. Give it a thought!

Of course, but it won't restore it's original value when I select another fixture, that means a lot of work. This maybe a really specific function, and it isn't really nescessary, but would be very clever when the brightness pallets aren't going to be used for something else.
