Manual Triggered Sub-Cue

Post by PhilVale » Wed Sep 11, 2019 6:18 pm

Mike,

Is there anyway to manually trigger a sub cue or is it only possible to have them triggered against the start/end of the previous sub cue or start of the whole cue?

If not any chance it can be put in a future release.

Could you give me an example of why you need a sub-cue to be manually triggered rather than having this as a separate cue?

Mike,

If I'm honest - neatness and tidiness and ease of maintenance.

Q10 is a manual cue to start some music perhaps at the start of the production. So that's Q10<1>
Q10<2> to stop or do something else may initially be a manual Q, perhaps for rehearsals. Then we may want to alter it to a timed cue or we may decide to leave it as a manual Q.

I agree it can be done all at the cue level rather than sub cue level l but I just think this makes it a neater proposition if possible and I don't have some cues that are nested in sub Q's and some that are not.

Phil.
