scene in solo frame blocks external button

Hi everybody,

I'm working with QLC+ for a year now and am very satisfied with this fine piece of software. But now and then there are a few things I cannot manage and so I hope to get some help from you.

I have a project with some moving heads and created 2 different positioning scenes for them, position1 and position2. They are situated in a solo frame on the virtual console so that only one of the 2 positions can be active.
I did the same with some color scenes for the same moving heads (scenes "red", "blue", and "green" in an onther solo frame on the virtual console). So far everything works fine.

But now I want to create collections with these positions and colors, p.e. "position1 + red". When I put a button with "position1 + red" collection on the virtual console (outside of any solo frames). When I click the collection button it works, but the previously activated position and colors in the solo frame remain active so that when I deactivate the collection button everything goes back to these previously selected scenes.

How can I do that the scenes in the solo frame don't remain active all the time? As they are only position and color changings there's no need for them to stay active, it would be enough to stay active for a couple of seconds, but I didn't find how to do that.

Thank you for your help!!!

Andreas

Hey Andreas,

I don't know if it is exactly what you want, but maybe you could try to use buttons in "flash" mode. Just try it and let me know if this does it.

Regards

Hi siegmund,

a flash button won't be the solution, I'm afraid. The problem is that in that case fade-in-settings are ignored.

Hello Limon

I think in your question you have the reason of your problem ;)

you put the Collection button outside of the "solo frame"

If ou put the collection button in the same "solo frame" where you have your other scenes button your problem is solved

i hope that i have understand wat you explain, and you understand what i mean :oops:
