Hi ! how do I copy a channel Paramente and times  from one cue to an other ?

 

Say I have a multiply channel fixture and I've make same changes to the default time in a specific cue and I wnt to copy to one cue to an other . 

Right now if I copy it form one cue to an other I can't copy the timing. Correct ? 

 

Do I have a way to do it ? 

 

Thanks

I'll be interested if anyone has an answer to this. While I was trying to look into the original poster's problem, I also came up with a timing question. How do you remove discrete timing from a channel?

[chan X] [time] [enter] should do the trick. Just remember that if you're in live, you'd need to update the cue that you're in.

It seems like the [channel list] [time] [enter] does remove the timing value, but a red t is still present underneath the channel.

channel timing is a manual value until you update the cue.  Once you do that it will remove the t

Thanks. What about the original poster's problem of copying cue and channel timings from one cue to another?

Currently you can copy the entire channels information (including time, delay, mark effect)

[Chan 1 thru 5 CopyTo 10]

 or just the levels,

[Chan 1 thru 5 CopyTo 10 LevelsOnly]

but there is no way to only copy the times at this time. We do plan to add more options to the copyTo syntax at some point, to further limit what is copied.

Working off of Dan's post, I just discovered that the following syntax copies a group of channel information from one cue to another group in another cue:

[Chan x thru y CopyTo Chan z Cue w] - Copies Channels x through y to channels starting at z in cue w

[Chan x thru y CopyTo Cue w] - Copies Channels x through y to cue w

I hope that I didn't make that too confusing.
