Hi all,
i'm quite new to QLC+ but i've found it quite intuitive and easy to use (of course i'm doing nothing difficult but play with DMX lights).
So, for first, thanks to the developers!
I need to switch between scenes (or sequences) using a remote command (in this case OSC).
I've already set up a Virtual Console (a Solo Frame), added a button and associated to the button a scene. I've then set the external input to the osc universe.
It works well, as expected.
My need now, is to make this button able to switch between more scenes.
I've read somewhere about the cue, but i wasn't able to fully understand how to use it and if it could be useful for me.
Any hints?
Thanks,
M

Have the exact same case at the moment
You make a cuelist (chaser) with all your scenes inside.
You set the duration as common and to infinite oo
On your VC you place this cuelist and have you osc input bound to the 'next' scene button.
My setup will be lightly different (ahum ahum)
I will use a remote control (wireless garagedoor opener) and have 4 channels connected to raspi inputs.
Functions needed:
* reset (go back to normal)
* Quiz (random lights) + stop [still figuring out how to use the same button for play chaser and stop it)
* Highlight 1 to 3
* spare function (probably to add some drama)

Hi and thanks.
Now i'm trying to work with cuelist.
I've prepared a few basic scenes, added them to a Chaser in the way you suggested, and in the Virtual Console i've created a Cue list adding the chaser created before .
Then i've configured the Next Cue using autodetect and sending the OSC message.
Now, the thing is that if I play the console, and send the OSC message, the first scene is triggered.
But after that, if i send again the OSC message, nothing happens.
It seems freezed in that scene.
I attach here the workspace. Sorry for the naming, it was a test and i'm an italian guy
Cheers

I tried it ...
Go to operate mode
play the cuelist
Since I cannot imitate your OSC messages I did try with a custom keystroke
It works...
But again - I'm not sure about your OSC messages (maybe you will have to create a custom profile where you tick the option 'generate an extra press/release on toggle'
