There will be anytime the same problem:
I have no light on at the moving heads in the function manager editors.
In my system I have splitted the moving signal from the light signal to get live bedder control over the moving heads,
but when I would like to create a new moving scene or effect I can't see where the heads are going at all, cause there is no light :-(
My only idea at his time is to go to the simple desk and turn on the light for every moving head by hand and when Iam finished i have to turn it off for all.
Is there a simpler way to fix this problem and work faster ?

What you are looking for is a highlite function which is not present in current version.
When I'm preparing the positions of the movers I'm having them lit up (inside the cue's).
When ready I open the showfile with a text editor and bring down all intensity channels for the position cue's... for me this is the quickest way.
(Take a backup before editing the show file - you can easily brake it)
All electric machines work on smoke... when the smoke escapes... they don't work anymore
