Individual fixture colors

When your programming scenes it is best to program your colors in the scene. when adjusting live or on the fly use the fixtures tab to access your fixture groups and adjust color and gobo etc on the fly. do you know how to do this?
Sincerely,

James,

I am going to be in front of the board tomm. so Ill give that a try. Have been off for about a week now so this will be my first time operating in a while. But I will mess around with it a bit and let you know what happens. Thanks!

James,

So I have tried to do some digging, and I found the fixture page and how to create fixture groups, but alas I dont think I really know what youre suggesting? Can you elaborate? Thanks very much!

-Ben

Ya I can elaborate monday afternoon after i re tech myself how to do it. haha. might have to make a quick video.
I will say that the fixture grouping feature is not perfect but is perfected in the next generation software due out this year.
Sincerely,

Great, im off all day tommorow so I will be available. Just curious too, have I made myself clear enough on what im trying to do? Just want to be sure you understood, sometimes I am not quite sure how to describe what Im seeing unless someones in front of me with it. Ill look forward to hearing your thoughts, thanks!

-Ben

Well then to clarify you want to know how to change individual colors and gobos etc on the fly? Say grab fixture one change color. Grab fixture 2 change gobo etc? Yes?
Sincerely,

Exactly! When using my operator pro, I was able to do this by using the fixture buttons on the 3rd row, and I could create scenes with two lights one way, two lights another, etc. Sounds like I made myseld clear enough, which is a problem for me usually Thanks for your help though, I think you know what Im talking about. Talk to you soon!

Now that I think about it, I am unfamiliar with how to do this same thing when creating scenes as well. I have tried looking at the fixture page, then turning themm all off and selecting an individual fixture, but they all go to the same color regardless.

Tell you what why not just give me a call sometime Monday afternoon for some training?

Sorry I didnt get back to you last night, ran out of time Anyway, I sort of have it fgured out now though, got into the fixtures page and started making groups with the help of the manual as well. I have 2 scenes so far and have just been trying to get used to it. Im having trouble getting used to unclicking certain buttons to make changes, etc. etc. I was wondering, can you tell me why when I have the far right button active, any effect I click gets a little L in the lower left corner? It then doesnt allow me to reuse the effect (color, gobo, switches, etc). So it goes eh, each new anwser creates a thousand more questions? Thanks in advance, and good time to call you this week, sometime in the evening?

Hey hiker, I am available 11am-7pm Central time monday-friday. I know what the "L" is. it is saving that preset on;y for the fixtures you are using and it "L"ocks it down for just those fixtures. When your clicking around in the fixture group and you select your fixtures that you want to over ride always make sure the moving head with the Red crossed out circle on it is selected. the very first button on the left side. That is disable mode. If you make sure disable mode is on the "L" won't appear.
Make sense? I forgot the command to release all the "L"'s on the pages. Let me try to find it and I'll let you know.
Sincerely,
