How to enter physical values inside a macro?

    Hi together,


    is there a way to enter physical values inside a macro?


    Ive tried:


    > attribute "pan" at physical -40


    But it does not accept it


    Ive found a workaround to change the userprofile first:


    > Set Userprofile 1 Property "valuereadout" "Physical" /noundo ""

    > attribute "pan" at -40


    Is there a better way?


    Thank you so much

    Forcing a unit via syntax, you'll find that e.g. "At Percent x" currently works, as there is a fixed relation between percent and decimal, however with the physical unit, any translation depends on the actual pan-ranges of the selected fixtures


    For now (as you found out) you will have to enable the Physical valuereadout/mode so that the fixtures know that the value they receive is to be interpreted as a physical value.

    Hopefully a future version will allow for the Physical keyword entered into the At-syntax to be passed (along with the value) to each fixtures so they can each do the proper translation.
