Played with Chasers to get smooth transitions for RGB Fixtures I noticed some weird behaviour using "Common" for Fade In, Fade Out, and Hold when running in the preview mode in the Chaser editor:
a) Using the "Speed Dial" to change values for Fade In / Out does not affect the "Duration", which yields in strange behaviour of the fade timing, only when changing the value for Hold, the duration is recalculated and applied.
b) Using the "Speed Dial" to set the Fade In / Out to higher values (e.g. 15s) and the Hold to 0s produces an artificial hold of about 10s for each step. This seems to be 1/3 of the sum of the duration, e.g. 15s Fade In + 15s Fade Out + 0s Hold = 30s Duration -> 10s artificial hold. For shorter Fade In / Out values it is obviously shorter and almost unnoticeable.
c) When adding steps, the dialog "Select Functions" is sorted Z->A
Thanks!
