missing cues when copy to clip board (solved)

[Gillian Craig]

Hi,

Im a fairly new SCS user: designing my second show on it . today I needed to create an excel spreadsheet with all the cues listed, so being the lazy baggage I am I figured I could do this by going to the 'print' menu and use 'copy to windows (I think it is) clipboard' and and paste it into notepad (no excel or word on my show laptop). I then transfered the notepad file to my macbook and it played nice and opened in excel in colums as hoped except: all the stop/fade out and level change cues were not listed...in either the notepad or excel file.
For example I had cue numbers SFX 1, SFX 2 SFX 3 etc, were SFX 2 was the fade out for SFX 1 . SFX 2 not there... goes SFX 1, SXF 3.

have I missed somthing here... ??

Cheers

Sorry for asking, but when you went to "Print Cue List", in the window that opened were SFR and Level Change cues checked in the Cue Type Selection? Were the fade cues visible in that window? Were the fade cues visible in Notepad on your laptop, ie did they disappear in the transfer to Mac?

What version of SCS are you running? In my SCS 9.5.3 fade cues pasted fine into Notepad and Excel, admittedly not involving a transfer to Mac. It's difficult to think of a reason why they might be stripped out.

Thanks for that ...I'm thinking I might not have checked the cue type selection.... I'm not in front of my show laptop right now will check when I go in.

I'm running the version before the latest release, on XP. I will be sensible and wait until this show is done before updating the software, today is industry preview and opening tomorrow.

Sounds like you just didn't click the check boxes for those cue types. They are not checked by default so it could easily be looked over.

Yep it was me, human error. oops. didnt check them cue types boxes.

All good now printed out my cue sheets, sure beats typing them in like I used to .

Thanks for the help.
