Goodmorning everyone!
I write to find a solution to my problem. I tried to find the answer in the manuals, but unfortunately I didn't find it.
I have been using QLC + 4.10 for a long time for my theater shows (musicals) and I often find myself in the situation of having to reposition the moving heads, changing the venue of the show.
My show has all the memorized scenes (a hundred) and in them work 6 moving heads (3 frontal and 3 against the light).
My requirement is to create position presets to be assigned to the memorized scenes and, once all the machines have been replaced in the new venue, change the values of the presets only so that all the scenes that read those presets are automatically updated.
Is all this possible? I hope so, because otherwise it becomes very inconvenient to have to reposition all 6 heads in each of the 100 memories. Last time it took us about 2 hours!
Thanks to all those who want to answer or have the same problem as me.
Chat soon!!

You might try modifying the channel for the fixture to be the best solution. This will mean you don't have to change any scenes at all.
This can be done by selecting the fixture and then the 'channels fade configuration' (black-purple button on the lower toolbar).
You can then create a configuration that effectively offsets the position of the movers.
If you start by choosing the linear modifier, you can click the yellow dot and then adjust the DMX output to allow for any small installation variations.

... or use Collections and/or Chasers.
Put the movers' Pan/Tilt (position) channels in separate scenes, then combine the main scene with the position scene.
With Chasers you can put a hold delay on while the heads move etc.
You only then need to adjust the position scenes.
I usualy try to adjust positioning in the blackout between scenes, but that's not always possible.
