Copying Effects

EFFECTS 2 COPY BEAM 5 ENTER Copies Effect Palette 2 to Beam Palette 5.
Moving Effects

EFFECTS N MOVE P ENTER Moves Effect N to Effect P.
When an effect is moved to a new location, any cues that referenced the original effect
palette will now reference the new location of the palette.
As all palettes have the same data structure and may contain fixture parameter data from
any combination of attributes, it is also possible to move effects from one attribute to
another, for example:
EFFECTS 2 MOVE BEAM 5 ENTER Moves Effect 2 to Beam Palette 5.

To delete an effect, enter one of the following commands:
EFFECTS N DELETE or DELETE EFFECTS N ENTER
To delete a range of effect palettes, enter the following command:
