Submaster value reset

Hi,

I have some buttons and a submaster slider in a Solo frame. The buttons are connected to functions that do something with the dimmer channels. When I have activated a button (all dimmer channels 100%) and use the sub master the values in the dmx monitor are changed to the submaster value. This is what I would expect. Now when I press one of the other buttons, the dimmer channels get the dmx value of the selected function, without the submaster correction.

Is this a bug?

I see this behavior on QLC+ 4.6.1 MacOS 10.8.5.

Thanks for your help,
Joep

Hey Joep, it actually sounds like an unwanted behaviour.

I need to double check it but it might take me some time.
Lately I'm continuously switching between 3 OSes and 2 Qt versions... :S

No problem, if it annoys me to much I will have a look at it myself.

3 OSes?
Are you also developing on a Mac and Windows machine now?
What happened?
:-)

Well, I always had to build QLC+ on 3 OSes, but there are some hardware related parts that need special attention on each OS (like the HID plugin, audio part, etc..)

Plus, I'm struggling to have a working port on Qt5 cause it brings some new cool features (like multiple audio, video support, etc..)
Unfortunately I'm reaching the conclusion that at the moment Qt5 is not mature enough for the QLC+ requirements. So we'll all have to wait :(

Hey Joep I've done a quick test and it seems to work as expected.
I tried with a submaster and a button.

Maybe you've set the "adjust function intensity" value ?

Hi Massimo,

I must have missed your last post, sorry for that.

The 'adjust function intensity' is off, but when I set it to on I get the expected behaviour.
What I expect is that when I press a button, the intensity of the function behind that button is corrected with the submaster intensity.
I'll create a small pull request to make it work like I would expect it to work.
