Pan/Tilt Movement Template

I would be delighted to have a template for Pan movements like the one shown in the attached image.
It would be great if there was a command that could make the selected fixture's Pan move in this manner, and also assign it to other elements.
I would love to use it if it exists!

For Tilt, it would be even better if there were a mode that could add angles like 30°, 60°, etc., per cycle of the Pan movement.

This is like a +or- form that can be added and programmed for the value you are sending.
I would like to use such a thing if it exists.

For controlling (Pan and Tilt) movements QLC+ provides a set of EFX Functions (https://docs.qlcplus.org/v4/function-manager/efx-editor) together with the X-Y Pad Widget (https://docs.qlcplus.org/v4/virtual-console/xy-pad).

To get you started, you could watch this video: https://youtu.be/8-bgVX4uT2E?feature=shared.

You can use EFX to simulate these effects:

- PAN Sine: Create circle with zero height, or use horizontal Line
- PAN Triangle is Horizontal Line2

In fact, Circle is a composition of synchronized PAN Sine (ok, Cosine, but it doesn't matter here) and TILT Sine.
If you want Sine instead of Cosine, add start offset.
