As a query is defined in the command line, channels will be specified in the Live/ Blind display.
When an [Enter] command is used to end the query, the remaining channels of the query will be
selected.
Example:
You wish to find channels which are in color palette 2 and have an intensity of 50%:
{Query} <Is In> {Color Palette} [2] [At] [5] [0] [Enter]
In the Live/ Blind display, any channels meeting this criteria will be selected.
You may use [Next] and [Last] to cycle through the query selection, one channel at a
time to control only a specific channel.
Other examples of using a query are:
{Query} {Isn’t In} {Beam Palette} [2] [5] [Enter]
{Query} {Accessory} {Can Be} {Color Palette} [8] [Enter]
{Query} {Unpatched} [Delete] [Enter] [Enter](Only works while in Patch.)
{Query} {Fixture Type} {Revolution} {Can Be} {Focus Palette} [6] {Isn’t In} [Cue] [4] [Thru]
[9] [Enter]
[Next] [Next] [Enter] - selects one channel from the query result
Additionally, in Patch you can define up to ten query keywords for each channel. These
keywords can be used to create a query condition as well (See
Adding Keywords in Patch (on
page108)
).
Keywords defined in Patch will appear in the CIA when {Query} is pressed. They can then be
used in a query like this:
{Query} {Your keyword} {Can’t Be} {Beam Palette 5} [Enter]
Hardkeys on the facepanel, such as [Time] can also be used to construct a query.
Using [Undo]
Undo is a method to reverse or “undo” certain operations performed in the software. You can
use [Undo] to reverse any command that results in a change to data that would be saved to the
show file or any command that changes manual levels in Live.
If there are any commands in the command line, pressing [Undo] once clears the command line.
Once the command line is empty, pressing [Undo] will start the undo process.
When [Undo] is pressed from an empty command line, the command history display will open in
the CIA and the most recent completed command is highlighted in gold. If you press [Enter], you
will undo your last command. [Shift] & [Clear] can be used to clear the command line as well.
