Selection List

A selection list is a list of fixtures. 

Syntax

[Object]

[Object-type1] [ID1]

[Object-type1] [ID1] + [Object-type2] [ID2]

[Object-type1] [ID1] Thru [Object-type2] [ID2]

[Object-type1] [ID1] Thru [Object-type2] [ID2] - [Object-type 3] [ID3]

[Object-type1] [ID1] Thru

[Object-type1] Thru [ID1]

[Object-type1] Thru

[Object-type1] "Name"

[Object-type1] "Nam*"

 

Important:
In a selection list, contrary to the object list, each object type is broken down to its corresponding fixture objects. These fixture objects form the selection list. 

 

  • If an object type is missing, the object type that was entered last will be used. 
  • If no object type is given altogether, the current object type default of the command line will be used. 
  • If there is no ID before or after Thru, the first or last available ID will be used. 
  • If there is no ID for an object type, the current, active or next ID will be used, depending on the function applied. 
  • If the reference of an object type is nonexclusive, significant parent objects will be broken down by user defaults and currently selected or active objects. 

Example:

[Channel]> Fixture 3 + Channel 6

Selects fixture 3 and channel 6.

 [Channel]> Cue Thru 3 - Channel 4

 Selects fixtures in first 3 cues, but does not select channel 4. 

[Channel]> Group 3 + Cue 4

Selects fixtures in group 3 and fixtures in cue 4.
