Hmm.. how about swapping the two layers? Set the shutter, color, gobo and pan/til origin in the copy layer, and run the pattern in the add-layer.

That should fix the problem.

After some experimentation, this is the solution that I ended up with. The lower layer (COPY) defines the fixed values, and the upper layer (ADD) then adds in the offset. The -128 -> +127 bit is great, once you get your head into thinking two's complement math :-)

As per usual, its only once I had sent an e-mail that I realised what was wrong and the remedy :-|

All I need to do now is define a number of sequences for each fixture/channel combo that I want to animate. The script editor should make quick work of that.

BTW The layer dragging made swapping the layers a doddle.

Indeed :-)

Thanks for the speedy reply.
