Wait a minute, I have seen that once, but AFAIK it has nothing to do 
with LCedit+.

I have seen this behavior on some channels getting more or less 
random values, when changing manually the setting (or during a fade). 
This can be solved by doing a backup of all files, erase the box, 
restore the files, and do a save LanBox.

Is it possible that you have seen this? If so, can you do the 
backup-erase-restore trick when it happens again?

The thing is that technically seen, LCedit+ can not change DMX values 
when changing from Edit to Run mode, as it does not do anything other 
then setting the run mode.

No that is correct, we enabled this button just to have a fast 
replace for corrections done on current cue while in run mode. If you 
switch to Edit mode, the cuelist is refreshed.
