Switches: Fade In/Out

you have to do that as steps (easy step tab in scene edit window) in the switch it self. The scene fade toolbar does not apply to switches. Make sense? Let me know.
Sincerely,

I think I understand what you are saying.

When I create a switch. On the master page, I do not select anything other than "Include the manual settings coming from the channel-page visualization". I have found that allows me to keep the current scene, but to just change specific things. Color for example.

When I link to Easy Step, the program resets all my lights to their initial setting. Is there a way to avoid this? Or should I use another method to create switches?

You should check out my video on you tube. Look for switches video.

Well, I'm sure there is a simple thing I am not doing. I set up the switch exactly like you did in your video. However, I can't get it to react to the fade time entered into the step.

Do you have to power it on or off or something like that to get it to work?

your channels have to be linked to the easy step output. and make sure you have a fade and hold time. Post a snap show of your switch edit window on the easy step tab and i bet i can tell what is missing or wrong. sorry for the delay i was out of town for the mobile beat show in Vegas with American DJ.

Dude, don't worry about the delay. I'm just glad to have access to a forum like this. It's awesome.

Here is the edit window for my switch.

Butters, you need to add another step into that switch. Step 1 should have easystep enabled on the color channel you wish to change, but the color itself should be at 0 with no hold or fade time. On step 2 bring the color up the level you want with no hold time and whatever fade time you want.

Keep in mind when one switch is released for another switch, it will instantly kill any colors that are not being used with no fade. You can fudge this some by changing the switch priority under switch settings.

butters man i forgot all about this post. but what EBAC said is correct. you are not adding a step in the switch edit window. If you need help doing so please let me know.
Sincerely,

Don't worry. I have until Saturday to figure this out. LOL!

How do I bring the color to 0? Wouldn't it just go to white?

Yes bringing the color channel to 0 value would bring it to white. Explain to me what you are trying to do again.
