"Dump only PT channels" option in the "Dump DMX values"

Hello! I'd like to request a "Dump only PT channels" option in the "Dump DMX values".
It can be very useful: I watch your video right now and you have to do reset lamps each time you're going to dump position. One checkbox will solve it and make possible to do fast position dump even during the show!
Thank you!

Welcome to the community,

With the dump DMX function, you can select which values to dump into a scene (or update an existing scene). The preselection will be remembered for the upcoming dump DMX...
So, I don't see the need for an additional functionality...

It did take me a couple times before I noticed that GGGs so you’re definitely correct with the functionality part.

However,

I agree with the OP in a way. Being able to select groups of fixtures, or parameters (all gobo/pan,tilt/color/dimmer/shutter) should exist.

Reasoning:
There’s similar functionality in the VC slider under level control. You may select all Red channels for example. Not sure how difficult it would be to add that to Dump DMX. I’m just an end user that knows how to make things look pretty, so treat me nice lol.

Anyone else agree?
