RyanB123 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Hello everybody! This will be my second year using the light o rama program and I was wondering if there was a way to clear out last years show completely from the schedule editor. The way I set my show up was confusing last year so I have some shows that were so small I cannot click them. Please let me know if there is a way to do a total refresh to the schedule editor!

Don Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 If you are indeed on 4.x, then look in your LOR directory. You will see weeksched.lsc and yearsched.lsc; delete those and your schedule will be cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 And looking at my S5 install, it would seem those same files are in use as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Don said is how I delete my entire show settings. So much easier and simpler than the old way I was doing it! I was doing it one box at a time inside the Schedule Editor. And as you found out, sometimes the box{es} is/are so small it's almost, but not impossible, to click on it to delete it, but that gets painstakingly annoying if you have a lot of "small boxes" like I did for some of my shows. Much easier just to delete the files Don gave you and it's all done. Beats doing it one box at a time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 BTW, you can rename those files rather than delete them. That way you can easy have multiple sets of configurations. I do that with my year round landscape lighting vs the Halloween vs Christmas shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way you can easy have multiple sets of configurations. I do that with my year round landscape lighting vs the Halloween vs Christmas shows. I used to do that too. However, I like to change things around a bit, including any landscape or other year round lighting I may have in use. It was a royal pain in the backside to load an older schedule file and then try to change it to meet the new parameters, as I'd also reset various times on the year round lighting . For me it was just a lot easier and faster to create a brand new show from a blank slate, as opposed to trying to modify exiting ones and reset times, which many times ended up with the changes being tossed because of a time overlap, even though I didn't see it that way, the scheduler did. So now I just delete old shows and create a new one when needed. But that's just my preference, others mileage may be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I always wondered why there was not a "Save Schedule As.. and its counterpart: Use Saved Schedule... Daylight hours change as well as season show content. It just seemed awkward to have to use the OS to make a named copy of a schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since those options to an extent are used in the Show Editor {Open, Save, Save As}. Only thing in the Scheduler is Save, so even if you wanted to do a Save As to save an older shows settings you can't do it in the Schedule Editor, only by exiting the Schedule Editor and renaming the .lss file, then creating an entirely new schedule. So I never really understood why those options were never included either in the Scheduler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
