This shows the Intensity as a number and graphically as ring, it shows what
attribute families have recently changes with the four attribute family ghost icons
, it shows the color of the Light, where the Light is pointed and any
shutter cuts that may be set. If you have multiple Lights selected, the mimic
shows the state of the first Light in the selection set. There are also
Fanning , Flip
and Highlight and Lowlight tools that appear to the left and right of the mimic.
Control Intensity
Intensity controls the relative brightness of a light. All lights have an
Intensity attribute. (Some lights, such as discharge lamps, must first be turned
on, or ‘
struck ’, before an intensity level can be seen.)
Attributes: Directly set a light’s intensity between 0 and 100 percent,
using IntensityToggle Shift and adjust the attribute to get DMX
increments. Some lights have intensity effects, such as Strobe, or operating
parameters, such as fan speed, that are also set here under Intensity.
Advanced : Allows you to lock or ‘park’ the intensity of selected
lights. Also allows you to release recent intensity changes, or to explicitly set a
light to its default intensity (typically off). 'Locked’ Intensity attribute values are
not recorded into Memories or Cues. Further advanced options, including Desk
Lock and Knockout , are discussed under Advanced Attribute Control .
