Colors locked out (solved)

that would be because of the fixture grouping. It locks those colors to the fixtures you used when you hit save in the fixture grouping tab. I'll elaborate more in a little bit.
Sincerely,

i think you msy need to delete those settings on the color presets. but here is the thing i can figure out how to delet them myself! haha. it is a feature i never use and ALWAYS forget how to use. also this feature does not work the best way it can. ill see if i can get elation pro to respond he knows how to get rid of them i believe.
Sincerely,

Don't delete anything!!

You should be able to find the grouping window behind the page window.
Its called the Fixture window.. or Tab.

Either way it has a few options to look at..
1. LIVE 2. SAVE 3. SELECT

If you selected say the color red. And you unselected fixtures using one of these settings... then you created a group function that make the color work on some or none of the fixtures.
You need to go to each color, then while that color is selected go to this Fixture window and check these 3 features and make sure all the fixtures are selected on all of these options.

Best regards,

Got it, Thanks. Now I also have a better understanding of the Fixtures page.

Thanks again,
dru

oh yeah.. and you need to read pages 41 - 46 in the user manual for a fun more extensive explanation of what's happening here.

Don't you know by now, DJ's don't read manuals.
