Click to insert a new empty line before the selected line in the cue list - right click the button to
insert 10 lines at a time.
Click to delete the selected lines in the list.
Rearranging lines in the cue list
Lines may be rearranged in the cue list by simple drag and drop operations. Select one or more lines
and drag them to the desired location. Note that when dropped on an existing line the dragged lines
will be inserted above the line on which they are dropped. Drag lines below the list to move to the end
of the list. It is also possible to rearrange the lines by selecting standard Cut, Copy & Paste
operations from the right click popup menu. For example, to copy the 5 top lines to the bottom of the
list, highlight the 5 lines, right click and select copy. Then right click at the bottom of the list (or
deselect all highlighted lines), right click and select paste. If lines are pasted 'on top' of a highlighted
line they are inserted before the highlight.
Clearing, saving and loading cue lists
Click to clear the current cue list and start a new cue list.
Click to save the current cue list.
Click to open the list of previously saved cue lists. Select the cue list to load into the cue list
control.
Note that these buttons are duplicated on the cue list tool bar.
To delete a single cue list file, right click the cue list in the list of cue lists and select delete cue list
file. To delete multiple cue list files, use the delete cue list files dialog (main menu/system/delete
files).
Importing other cue lists into the current cue list
To import a previously saved cue list into the current cue list, drag it from the list of previously saved
cue lists onto the cue list lines - this will insert the imported cue list before the line it is dropped on.
To add the imported cue list to the end of the list, drag the cue list to an empty line below the current
cue list.
Manual vs. automatic line advance
Cue list Go/Back buttons
Each line in the cue list may be set to either manual or automatic advance (default is automatic). To
change one or more lines, highlight, right click and select Set Advance Mode from the popup menu.
The difference between a manual and automatic line is that the manual line waits for a user input (Go
command) before performing the commands or latching the cues in the line. Also, if a line is set to
manual advance certain commands (e.g. wait time code commands) are ignored (see commands).
The Go command may be set by clicking GO ! (only enabled if the cue list is active and waiting for a
go command). Unless the cue list is waiting for a Go command on the first line, it is also possible to
issue a Back command that will cause the cue list jump back one line.
A few cue list commands are ignored if the advance mode is Manual, see cue list commands.
Both the Go and Back commands are available through Hotkeys, DMX in, MIDI in commands or by
assigning the function to the 2532 direct access controller.
Manual and automatic advances may be mixed freely within the cue list; it is perfectly possible to
'interrupt' a mainly automatic cue list (e.g. time code driven) by one or more manual lines to wait for a
user input. Likewise a mainly manual cue list may include a number of automatic advance lines, for
