Moving Head Advance Effect - Color Wheel also turns on dimmer #4651

Creating this again #4506 This needs to be addressed. When you click the color wheel to select a color, it is placing a full on for the dimmer. This overrides the "dimmer" tab of the MHA effect. Need some way to negate this "side effect".

Seems desirable for the "old way" then one would place an on effect on the mh, but not desired for the MHA effect.

Trying to control the dimmer .. it works nicely .. but if you choose a color wheel option, it overrides this. image

You need to pick just one dimmer channel. Zero out the dimmer channel under the color wheel option if you want to use the stand alone dimmer channel.
