- Type the shortcut Cap
Description
The Capture keyword is a command keyword which is used to activate the current output values of specified parameters.
Capturing parameters during a running phaser or cue fade activates the actual values at the moment the command is executed. The result is a single step of static values resembling a freeze frame of the output.
|
Important: |
| The capture command produces only numeric values, losing any existing preset references. |
|
|
Important: |
| The capture command translates the output of each parameter into the appropriate value on the absolute layer while activating a 0 value on the relative layer. For any parameter where the output was previously composed of a combination of absolute and relative values, the output will appear the same while relying only on the absolute layer with no relative offset. |
