Group configuration not being saved correctly [fixed]

[RobGoldberg]

Hi folks. I am a brand new user of ShowXpress (Version 7). I have everything set up and working great except for a couple of things:

1. I create groups and assign fixtures to the groups. During that session everything works great. Then I export the show. The next time I import the show the fixture assignments to the groups is not correct anymore. Most of the assignments have been lost. What could I be doing wrong?

2. I have some 4BAR TRI lights. They have 4 lights in the fixture and each is an RBG color chooser. I see how I can use the RBG color selector in the software to choose a color but for that fixture it always changes all four lights concurrently. How can I set it up so that I have separate RGB control of each light in the fixture? There are DMX channels for each light. I know I can manually adjust the DMX channels but I want to be able to use the RGB color chooser for each of the lights. Much easier that way.

Previously I was using Luminaire on an iPad and it easily controlled each light in the 4BAR TRI fixture separately.

Thanks. I hope to be using this forum quite a bit

1.
There was a similar bug in a previous version. Please try again with version 7.1.21.

2.
Version 7.1.21 gives the possibility to select the RGB zone inside a fixture. This is a new feature. Please try it.

Where do I find 7.1.21? I only see 7.1.12 on the download site.

Hi

I'm using 7.1.48 on Mac and the groups don't save at all.

[support]

Please post (or email) your lightshow, and tell us how to proceed to reproduce the problem.

Add some fixtures.
create several new groups with fixtures.

Add more fixtures.
create new group for new fixtures.
Some of existing groups loose their fixtures.

In fact, the group change is lost exclusively when we make/save a change in Fixtures.
Fixed in V7.1.50: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3500#p14412
