Several 1.5.2.1 issues

Quote from Ringen

On Dual-Encoder 5 the encoder resolution options are always visible. (Light CRV)
The Channel Functions are not visible.

To confirm, you don't have the screen encoder enabled in your user profile?

Using the Dual Encoders 'Press and turn' option with multiply makes values jump all over.
Also when you release and continue to turn you get a huge jump.

(Inner encoder with default settings)

What fixtures? Which attributes? What resolution and readout?

Ringen... Lost me here. You saying that you set up your 5 encoders to act as attribute controlers? I always thought the 5th encoder was for internal display movement only.

Never Mind.. Learn something new today lol. Never realized you could turn on off in a custom user profile.

Ringen I agree totally on that. That's why it thru me off guard at first. Always thought it was a decicated screen encoder, which I never use as well.

I haven't tried your press and turn yet. may get achance later today.

Best seen with resolution Fine:

I adjust from 0 to 5
Then I press and adjust to 20 (With multiply 5)

I release and continue adjusting and it starts from 5 again

If I press it starts from 20 and so on...

If I wait 2 seconds after I release before I continue to turn it seems to work...

Finally able to sit at an MA3 in Mode 3 and I can also confirm that as long as you switch between pressed and unpressed in a somewhat fluid movement, for example while spinning the encoder you press it too hard and change to 5X mode it does jump between values in the two modes.

There also seems to be a bug where where one of the modes ends up either < 0 or >100 (while showing 0 or 100), For example:

• For good measure do a ReloadUI
• Select a fixture and go to the Dimmer Attribute
• While in Percent Fine, Spin the encoder from 0% to 100%.
• Then within 2 seconds press the encoder and go from 100% to 0%. The encoder sometimes gets stuck at 100% for a number of turns. I say sometimes since occasionally it works fine.

If you wait longer then 2ish seconds between the spin up and the pressed spin down it seems to work as you expect.

I have noticed this with other Attributes where it seems like the encoder is not working for a moment.

In a Fixture Sheet with Fixture Sort ON and Prog Only ON:

I select some fixtures and they show up

I try to select the NAME-cell for one of the Fixtures - That Fixture is sent to the bottom (Same for FID-cell)

Only way to select the cell you want is when your fixture is at the bottom.

I assume this is wrong, but if not I would like to know the purpose.

This is expected. Tapping on a fixture in the fixture sheet adds that fixture to the end of your selection (more accurately, it adds it at the location of the cursor as shown in the selection grid). If you already had the fixture selected, then it moves to the end of the selection. By the way, this is also how it worked in MA2.

yes there is a problem with the new syntax

Hey guys,
thanks a lot for your feedback. This is always very helpful for us.

• Regarding the Fixture At Fixture issue: This is something we are already working on for the next software version. So we know that there are some issues but this will be definitely improved.
• The "Do not save" bug is also known and currently we are working on this to fix it!
• About the issues with the dual encoders - some of them are known, but some seem to be new as well (at least for me ;-)). Let me check this and address it to our developers.

Thank you very much again. This feedback is highly appreciated!

So, got some results here already

Ringen : We can reproduce the issue with the channel functions on the 5th encoder and will address this to our developers. Thanks for this!

What we can not reproduce is the issue with the value jumps when you press the encoder. Could you maybe do a short video where we can see this and send it to us (help@malighting.com)?

That would be really helpful. Thanks a lot!

This happens consistently to me as I noted above.

In this attached video I have my Light in session with onPC and recording from there. I'm using a macro that changes the Grand Master to help denote when I press and release the encoder.

Fairly simple to reproduce for me.

• select the dimmer
• slowly roll the encoder clockwise
• press the encoder while continuing to turn the encoder clockwise
• encoder jumps. Where is jumps depends on where it was previously.
