FocusTrack Revision History


2.111/24th Feb 2010
Fixes an issue with hard zeroes being counted as on for move when importing from Strand consoles and looking for preset/postset moves. Strand pan-tilt only import now correctly finds min import level. RigTrack will now show used chans after pan-tilt only Strand import. Stepping through cues in FocusTrack or RigTrack will follow links properly. CueLIst ‘arrange in link order’ now shouldn’t get stuck in a permanent loop if cues link back to earlier cues.

2.110/21st Feb 2010
Fixes to issues with grandMA import, particularly with regard to QuickFocus grid, renaming or renumbering position palettes, and Chan Summary and PowerTrack. Re-import cue list in Cue List now works with grandMA. New ‘QF Chan and Pos’ button in FT Big Picture views (also available in LampFocus menu and via keyboard shortcut). New tool for importing lots of photos into FocusTrack and RigTrack in one operation. Help file correctly describes file/folder names required for grandMA import.

2.109/15th Feb 2010
Cue List will now correctly update and then display pictures after the location of the FocusTrack folder is changed or after importing an old FocusTrack. FocusTrack will display inverted main menu immediately at startup if that option set. Importing of lamp-focuses where the fixture is set to be blocked in its first cue in Eos corrected. Import of intensities from fixtures with sixteen bit intensity channels in Eos corrected. RigTrack’s Cue Summary and PowerTrack now show cue states correctly with Eos (they were missing out tracking channels after their first cue). Eos Intensity Palettes are correctly resolved. Picture notes in inverted displays are no longer black text on black background. Data List in FT now has inverted option.

2.107/4th Feb 2010
Fixes some more issues with QuickFocus.

2.106/4th Feb 2010
Adds tools to deal with FocusTrack’s match field (used to identify and match up lamp-focuses across multiple imports) becoming incorrectly set by FT versions 2.100-2.104.

2.105/3rd Feb 2010
Fixes an issue where focuses from QuickFocus were not matching imported palettes from Eos, resulting in duplicate palettes appearing. Misc other QuickFocus tidyups. New ‘rename palette’ button in FT, as for ‘renumber position’.

2.104/1st Feb 2010
New PowerTrack functionality in RigTrack - RigTrack can now calculate the instantaneous load and (if taught the way cues run in the show) the overall power used by a show. To support this, new ‘Learn Cue Timing’ function in Cue List, and both Fixture Library and RigTrack understand ‘idle power’ - the reduced power some moving lights drop to when the lamp is struck by the dimmer shutter is closed. Fixes Eos patch import issue where odd channels were going mixing from RigTrack while still showing up in FocusTrack. Fixes Eos import issue where ‘hard’ (non-paletised) values were not appearing correctly in RigTrack.

2.101/18th Jan 2010
New ‘renumber position’ function (in Position List display). New +/- buttons for adjusting ranges of photo file names in FocusTrack and RigTrack.

2.100/16th Jan 2010
New QuickFocus functionality in Cue List and FocusTrack, including moving grids between the two. Display row separators revised to line between rows. Big Picture displays revised and tidied. Eos import fixes relating to Mark and blocked cues. Lights can now be tagged as type ‘LED’. Lots of misc tidy-ups.

2.025/18th Nov 2009
Multiple cue-list import supported from Eos and grandMA. Show Alls will now keep last selected thing, so you can work on an item but not lose your place when expanding the view back to all items.
