Item Lists are used to store specific color and gobo value combinations for later use in Effects such as the Colorchaser or Gobochaser.
Overview
The Item List window can be accessed via « Windows »⇒ « Project Explorer ».
Usage
Creating and Editing
In the Project Explorer, you must first create a suitable item list. This can be done using the [Create Item List] button or through the « Create Item List » entry in the context menu of the Item Lists folder. Double-clicking on the created list opens it. With the [Add] button, you can add gobo or color values, and with the [Delete], [Up], and [Down] buttons, you can delete entries or move them up and down within the list.
Color List
There are several ways to select the color to be added. You can choose from predefined color lists of renowned analog filter manufacturers such as Lee, Chromagel, and Supergel, as well as standard colors. Alternatively, you can use the color wheel (Color Picker) to select custom colors from the RGB or HSV spectrum and save them as user-defined colors.
Additionally, a "DefaultColorlist" can be created. The selected colors will then be available as an additional tab in the Color Control section, facilitating quicker color selection in the StageView.
Gobo List
The gobo to be added can be selected from a list of all gobos currently available in DMXControl 3.
Applying to Device Groups or Individual Devices
To use a color or gobo list on a Device or a Device Group, add the Effect Colorchaser or Gobochaser to the Device Control of the current selection. In the parameters of the respective effect, you can then choose one of the previously created lists.
