Effect Programming

[martinty]

I have two cuelists setup on my Palette. The second one is a "random" order of lights following each other at an interval of 1. I want the second cuelist to run as a cue in the main cue list. How can i program this?

In your main list, on the cue where you want your 2nd cuelist to run, double click in the "Action" box.
In the action box, select "Macro"
Select "CueListGo" (at the top of the list) hit Insert
Select your second cuelist name as the value.
Hit OK a fwe times...

This will tell the cue to run a macro to start the 2nd cuelist. I assume that list has auto follow (or similar) set for its cues.

Thanks! Yes, There are about 20 cues in the second cue list, they are all set to auto follow.

you want to go to your main cue list and to then to the cue you want the effect to happen and go then go to the action column and click on there this will open up a window where you will se a "MACRO" button click on it and you macro bilder window will open and you now build a macro to link from the main cue list to the other one and the click on CueListGotoAndExecuteFollows" and te click on "Insert" button and then "Edit" and use the pull down menus to get the right cue and then you want to go to the cue in your main list and put in and "Action" to stop the running of the secondary cue list and that is "CueListRelease"
