4.3.3 All-in-One Control Option
When the Global Control parameter is set to a DMX value = 253, you can use the
Global Control Modifier
parameter to control the
All-in-One
control option. This option helps you visualize what the graphics engine is doing. The
All-in-One
option maps the media
file content of Collage and Curved Surface support effects as well as up to three effects applied to graphics objects and displays it
in a multi-quadrant grid. These effects are accessed according to rendering hierarchy used by the graphics engine, (see
Graphics
Control Hierarchy
on page 3).
When the
Global Control
parameter is set to the All-In-One option, you can view the individual effects applied to each Graphic
object in the
Global Control Modifie
r parameter.
4.4 Masking Control
4.4.1 Mask Shape Select and Strobing
The
Mask Select
parameter lets you choose a mask to frame or overlay a composite image. You can choose to apply a mask to an
image when you don't want an entire image to be seen or you want to transition from an image to black or a solid color without
fading intensity.
4.4.1.1 Mask Shapes
The graphics engine currently provides 30 mask shapes including circular, rectangular, and oval masks that close from inside out or
outside in. Checker Board, Radial Wipes, and Multi-panel options are also included with variations.
Default DMX Value
= 0 Round “iris” closes from outside in.
DMX values 0-127 (0-50%) are reserved for static mask shapes. Values of 128-255 (51-100%) are reserved for strobing Mask
shapes. Values not yet implemented default to 128.
