Set First Used Cue

The Set First Used Cue toolbar button will populate the ‘Focus Cue’ field with the first cue number where the selected channel or channels are above zero intensity and in the preset. When the toolbar button is clicked on, there are several choices that drop-down in a menu:

For Selected Channels

As the title suggests, it will set the first used cue for the selected channels in the selected preset.

For Channels in Selected Preset

Will set the first used cue for all the channels in the currently selected presets.

For Channels in All Presets

This will set all the channels, in all the presets.

For All Presets (Not Channels)

The preset’s focus cue will be set if all the channels in the preset have the same focus cue. If they are not the same, the focus cue for the preset will be unchanged. An option dialog will open which allows you to change how the feature will work.

Set First Used Cue - All Presets (Not Channels) Dialog

*It is worth noting that when you enter a focus cue (or ‘Set First Used Cue -> For All Presets (Not Channels)’) for a preset, it will look up the cue in the cue list view and if a Set has been assigned, the preset’s Set field will be populated with the set from the cue.

!To use this functionality, the main cue list must be specified under the ‘Console’ tab in the File->Preferences menu. If this is not set, you will get a warning when choosing to set the first used cue.
