My experience so far: I loaded an existing 4.8.1240 showfile, it took a few minutes to load but came up fully functional. I added th offset programmer view and tested changing the offset on some of my spots. It took me a minute or two to fifure out how to go into the view settings and enable editing. I think this would be easier if it was a button on the view tool bar instead, similar to editing the 2d plan. I saved the show file with the new view.
When I loaded the saved 4.9.1248 showfile (with the new offset view) I recieved a dax error, after clicking ok on the error the views loaded but the offset view was missing. The programmer and live output views were also blank, although I was able to select fixtures and change values and see these changes in 2d plan. Loading the initial 1248 saved version of this file (before i added the offset view) loads fine.
Hope this input is usefull, I still havent gotten into the other new features but when I do I will report back. Thanks for the update, these features are great.
One issue, which has persisted for the entire software’s Lifetime is when you try to CLEAR with no fixtures selected, nothing happens. Clear → Enter with either ‘Non-Selected’, or ‘Non-Selected + Selected’ chosen does not clear anything from the programmer, when no fixtures are selected.
you have fixture 5 selected. deselect all fixtures and try again. This function only works if at least 1 fixture is selected. It does not work if 0 fixtures are actively selected.
This causes me a lot of slow down in my busking work flow, if I, for instance, am mid show and I want to quickly clear all P/T values out of the Programmer. Clear → Selected + Non-Selected → Pan Tilt → Enter → Nothing Happens → I realize no fixtures are selected → Select a Fixture → Repeat the entire process
If I try to clear any non-selected values, and no fixtures are selected, therefore it should clear all those values. Having to make sure one fixture is selected seems like an unnecessary step
We see no issue here: new fixtures are exchanged in both directions. Or are you specifically adding input processors, because they are not exchanged (yet) in either direction?
ok, let us know if you can reproduce. Guess you didn’t use input processors yet then ;-), they’re the “fixtures” that pull in and process NDI or audio streams
