Showing incorrect end channel for MH shadow model #4557

Closed derwin12 closed 4 months ago

derwin12 commented 5 months ago

The MH Dimmer etc are only 2 ( or 8 or) channels long .. but the layout is showing what appears to be a default of 16 channels. image

The layout has always had a refresh issue. Drop another model on the layout and see if it updates.

I can't debug this from just that screenshot. I created a Single Line model with 8 strings, 1 node per string, single color and then mapped each individual start channel to the 4th channel of each moving head. The end channel is going to show the channel 1 past the last channel assigned so you can see its the 5th channel of MovingHead8. That seems normal plus I don't see how this issue is moving head specific seems like it would do this no matter which model type you were trying to shadow.

I think in this scenario - ie a shadow model like this .. then the end channel should just be blank. There is no meaningful number you could put there.

We can clen it up like we did for groups.. BUT.... should the start channel also be removed and just leave the @MH:1:1?

derwin12 commented 4 months ago

Seems like a good idea..

cybercop23 commented 4 months ago

So this looks good? image

I think that makes sense .. also allows one to quickly eyeball all the MH scenarios.

that and any shadowmodels since they all look alike.
