[LCtalk] Fixture editor annoyance

[Jason Brameld]

I have been delving into the fixture editor for the first time.  I have 
almost got the hang of it.

I was entering a number of colour preset values for CMY mixing (to match 
Lee filters) and found an annoyance:

The normal way to add a preset is to click in the blank area below the 
existing presets (if any) and then click in the entry box below the 
preset list and type in your required name.  This works fine until you 
have 9 (or more) presets in, and then there's no space below the list in 
which to click.  Clicking on any other preset in the list only allows 
you to edit the name of that preset in the entry box.  The scroll list 
needs to have a 'blank space' added to the bottom to make this workable, 
or an entry (or button) for [add preset].

The workround I have found is to click on the 'colour' preset type 
selection, and I can then click in the entry box and add a new preset.  
This unfortunately resets the list to the top, so I can't see what the 
last entry was without scrolling down.

I have about 130 more that I want to put in, and that's a lot of 
annoying clicks!

Or am I missing something?
