5.4 Advanced options

5.4.1 Shape fade mode

When a shape is stored in a cue, you can set how the shape fades in

using the cue’s Mode setting (use [Edit Times] from the main menu

then [Fade Mode]).

Modes 0,1 and 3: The shape size will grow from zero to the

programmed size using the time/delay settings of the cue.

Mode 2: The shape size will be set by the fader position. It will start

at zero and grow to its programmed size when the fader reaches

100%.

If a new cue is fired which controls the same attributes (for example,

a second shape controlling the same fixtures as a currently running

shape), the new shape will crossfade from the running shape.
