short cut to color selection- Newbie

[ranjanpa]

Hello,

I am planning to have a 32 channel display for the first time. I have a question regarding sequencing by color.

I have five colors of light - Red, Green, White, Blue and multicolor.

Is there a command or short cut to fire the channels of a particulat color - for example I want all the channels having red light to come on for five seconds, then all the green ones and then the white etc.

LOR knows the color of each channels so this should be a straightforward thing for LOR. But dont know if the software has a command for this.

Appreciate any help.

The easiest thing to do would be to group your channels by color. Once you have defined your channels, you could then create groups, and put all the red in one group, green in another, etc. When you want all Red on, you'd need only turn on the Red group. (Which would be applying the "on" effect to the channels in the Red group.)

As far as a keyboard command to say, "All channels that are Red, turn on now" none such command exists.

(Of course, you could also turn all of the red lights on, copy them, and save them to the "Saved Clipboards" section on the left side of the screen.

Ok I am learning.

How do I create groups.

If channel nos. 1, 3, 4, 7, 9 12, 23, 24 an 29 and red. How do I put them in one group and then how do I turn them on.

Take a look here. It should give you an idea how to create the groups.

Remember, the channels will need to be next to each other when you create the group, or you will need to drag the channel into the group once you've created it.

Thanks. That sure helps.

Got my task cut out for the weekend. Cheers.

As you said the channels need to be together for this to work. That may not be the situation as per the channel design.

Wish there was an option of "Add to Group"

[Don]

You could create the group with a single channel, and then drag the other channels into the groups.

[ranjanpa]

Thanks. Drag an drop a channel into a group does not seem to work for me. Is there a particulat way to drag and drop.

[Don]

Make sure the channel group is expanded, first. Then take a channel, click/hold, drag onto the lone channel in the group.

[ranjanpa]

Got it. Have to first expand the expand before performing drag and drop. Awesone, you are super..
