[LCtalk] !!! Theaterguys on the list: Go Prev. Cue in Man. fadetime can be implemented!!!.

[Dennis Peeters]

Hey Guys.

Good news, after an offlist discussion (in dutch) with Fokko, he has 
agreed to implement a new feature, if the rest of the theater people 
don't object.

He proposes to couple the Go Previous Cue(step)  command with the 
Manual Fadetime, making a "soft but quick U-turn" possible regardless 
of cuestep fadetimes.
If Manual Fadetime is of LCEdit+ will react as it does now (so use the 
time of the previous cue).
If you don't use manual fadetime for other edits you can make a "Manual 
Fade ON; Go Previous Cue(step);Manual Fade OFF" macro and make a 
quickkey out of that.
He's also prepared to consider making it that if you re-call the 
cuestep you're in, it'll fade in manual fadetime too.
This will make speeding up/slowing down running crossfades possible. 
Also a soft reset is possible then.

I think this is great news, but Fokko won't implement it till he's sure 
nobody objects
So John, Paul, Philippe and the other theaterpeople PLEASE SUPPORT ME 
in this quest.
Or post your objections on the list.

I can see no drawbacks, can you.
Hope you'll help me

Grtz
