5.6. Clear key
The Clear key is used to release the selection and values in your programmer.
If you have some fixtures selected and you press the Clear key then you will no longer have any fixtures selected.
If you have some values in your programmer but no selection, you will release the values and they will go back to the
default values or values from executors.
If you have both a selection and values, you'll need to press the Clear key twice. First press will clear your
selection, second clear will release the values.
If you press and hold the Clear key for about a second then you'll also clear both your selection and your values.

5.7. Copy key
The Copy key is used to copy something from one location to another (valid) location.
E.g. you want to copy group 1 to group 2
Copy Group 1 At 2 Please
If you want to make a copy of cue number 2 to a (new) cue 9 in the main cue list, you can use the following keys:
Copy Cue 2 At 9 Please this will give you a selection box on screen 1 where you need to choose Copy .
If you need to do the same on a different executor, then you need to specify the executor. The same example but for
executor 4:
Copy Cue 2 at 9 Exec 4 Please , same selection box where you select Copy .
You can also use ranges.
Copy Cue 2 Thru 4 At Cue 9 Please will create cue 9, 10 and 11 (if you had cue 2, 3 and 4). Cue 9
will be the same as 2, 10 is like 3 and 11 is like 4.
If you copy from one source to a destination
range
, then you create several similar cues.
E.g. copying cue 2 to cue 15, 16 and 17 will create three copies of cue 2 located at cue 15, 16 and 17. This is the
key strokes:
Copy Cue 2 at 1 5 Thru 1 7 Please again you'll need to select copy in the selection box.
If you try to copy information to an already existing location you have two options: Overwrite or Merge.
Overwrite will delete the current value. Merge will add new values and overwrite existing values.
