Hey, I'm new to this forum and QLC+, but not QLC. I've been running QLC for the past year and have had no problems with it.
I just found out about this QLC+ and got it installed! I have a launchpad look set up on my virtual console, while I actually
use the launchpad. On the virtual console, I can set flash functions, so when I hit a button on the launchpad (midi controller),
the light I want lights up, and when I let go, it turns off. But when I try to hit 2 flash function buttons at once, it won't let me,
it only does one function. It's very frustrating, because I was able to do it in the original QLC. Any options I can set to run more
than 1 flash function? I would love suggestions. If I can't do anything about it and that's the way it is on QLC+, so be it. Thanks! :)

Hi, please share the workspace so we can have a look.
Also, please indicate the name of the buttons you want to flash together so we can reproduce your same issue.

Alright. Here is my workspace file attached. Hopefully it is understandable. When you open up the virtual console, there are bolded launchpad buttons
to match the scenario below...

A scenario is when I hit the RGB loop (loops red green and blue, but doesn't turn on the master dimmer for those lights (not a flash function)) and I
start hitting multiple "Par On" buttons (turn on the master dimmer for those lights, turning the light "on") with the flash functions, I can't
have more than one on at a time. You might need a launchpad or some sort of midi controller to recreate? But hopefully all goes well
and an answer comes out of this! Thanks!

I tried to reproduce. I created simple workspace with 2 rows of buttons each triggered by different key on the keyboard:

Q,W,E (Scenes 1A,2A,3A) have all channels selected. If more buttons are flashed, the last one wins.
A,S,D (Scenes 1B,2B,3B) have only one channel selected. If more buttons are flashed, more channels are on.

Seems like problem with HTP and flashing.

You are the best! It's fixed and my show is running smoothly! Props to you! Thank you so much.
