Hi all,

Sometimes in a show, I add a scene (adding an extra track) and the lights in the scene don't do anything, I've to add an extra (empty) track for the previous track to work. I can not say when or how this problem occures, but I have now multiple show's where I have this problem in one show I had to add more then one extra track to get it all working in the show.

Hi,

I have the same problem : the last track of my shows either does'nt work properly or doesn't work at all. I fix it by the same way, I always have an empty track at the end of my shows...

I already noticed this bug in this thread, but no one answered me... :(

Hi,

Indead looks like the same problem, maybe nobody answered because there are 4 different issues in the thread. You said something about the pause shortcut, I know the spacebar, what is the other one ? Didn't find that yet

Thanks for that, it always helps the guys to know that. Also if / when you have a misbehaving show if you could save the workspace before you fix it, and post it up here that might help them to.

Information is power ;-)

Make sure you don't have 2 tracks with the same name
can you double check that ?

There was indead an track with the same name, but renaming it didn't solve the problem.

Ubuntu 14.04 and QLC+ 4.9 when I discovered the bugs. Seem to be still present in 4.10.2.

Maybe. I don't know, nobody answered. :mrgreen:

You have two buttons in the Show Editor, one to play and one to pause. The one to play is bound on the spacebar, but not the one to pause. So you can't use the spacebar as a general shortcut to play/pause your show.

I checked, this wasn't the case.

On Window this is not the case, I can only start with the spacebar, it won't stop, very annoying, because you have to move you mouse to the stop button everytime.
