ETC Element - Deleting Cues; Using the Cue List Index

Working with a Cue List 241
In the above example, if running in cue only mode, any tracked values in cue 2 become blocks
(see Block (on page231) ) or moves in cue 9, as well as any move instructions which now match
the previous cue. Cues after cue 9 are affected based on the default setting of track/ cue only.
Any values in the cue after cue 2 that tracked from moves in cue 2 are changed to move
instructions.
Ranges of cues can be moved as well. If any cue is to be overwritten, a confirmation is required.
See Using Move To (on page255) for more information.
Deleting Cues
Cues or ranges of cues can be deleted. When deleting cues, the track/ cue only setting of the
console will determine how subsequent cues are affected. The [Q Only /Track] button can be
used to modify the default behavior as needed.
Some examples of cue deletion are:
•
[Delete] <Cue> [5] [Enter] [Enter] - deletes cue 5. Subsequent cues in the list are affected
depending on the console default setting.
•
[Delete] <Cue> [6] [Q Only/Track] [Enter] [Enter] - deletes cue 6, making exception to the
default setting.
•
[Delete] <Cue> [7] [Part] [1] [Enter] [Enter] - deletes part 1 of cue 7. Deleting a part does
not delete any move instructions. Those will be moved to the main cue. See Deleting a
Part from a Multipart Cue (on page276)
•
[Group] [1] [Delete] <Cue> [2] [Enter] - deletes any channels in group 1 from cue 2. Cue 2
remains in the cue list and any channels not in group 1 are unaffected.
•
[Delete] <Cue> [2] [Thru] [8] [Q Only/Track] [Enter] [Enter] - deletes cues 2 through 8,
making exception to the default setting.
Deleting In Track Mode
When the console is in track mode, deleting a cue also removes any move instructions provided
by the cue. For example, assume you have stored cues 1 through 10 and cue 5 contains move
instructions for channels 1 through 5. If cue 5 is deleted, the move instructions are deleted as
well and the values from cue 4 will track directly into cue 6 and beyond.
In this instance, if you used the [Q Only] button in the delete instruction, cue 5 would be
deleted, but the tracked values in cue 6 that originated in cue 5 would remain and be converted
to move instructions.
Deleting In Cue Only Mode
When the console is in cue only mode, any subsequent tracked values are not eliminated, but
are converted to move instructions instead.
In the example above, deleting cue 5 (in cue only mode) would result in any tracked values in
cue 6, that originated in cue 5, being converted to move instructions.
If you apply the [Track] button to the delete instruction, the move instructions from cue 5 are
deleted and the values from cue 4 would then track into cue 6 and beyond.
Using The Cue List Index
The cue list index is a Blind display list which shows the cue list, the cue status, and cue list
properties.
When [Cue] [1] [/] is on the command line, the following cue list softkeys are available:
{Partition} {Priority}, {Background}, {Time Code},{Auto Block Cleanup}, and {Edit}.
