Exclusive cue does not apply whilst counting down

Post by Boswell » Mon Mar 01, 2010 7:43 pm

Hi Mike,
10.6.3
Playing an audio file cue with an auto start level change cue at 29 secs after the start of the audio cue.

Works fine, but I wanted to make the level change cue exclusive to stop anyone jumping cues before the level change. but the exclusivity does not apply whilst the auto start level change cue is counting down to its start, it only applies to the very short time it is actually running.

It's a minor point and I can live it with it, but it is not behaving as I expected! probably me :)

Don't know if it will affect the logic of other types of cue
regards
Boswell

Could you email me your cue file (the .scs file)? I've just set up what I think is a similar case and it seems to work, ie the 'Go' button was disabled while the Level Change cue was counting down, and remained disabled until the Level Change completed.
