I don't see a way. The Bulk Channel Edit "should" be the best place for it, but it isn't there. Time for a feature request.
Though it begs the question - Why delete a channel? I've never done anything but add more or edit them to do something else. ------------- JonB - D-Light user |

Why delete channels....especially more than one? How about if you download someone else's sequence. If they have 64 channels and you only have 32.

Although I dont have a FF unit, if I create a FF channel and draw a few RGB commands on it...color fades, ect. It does let me switch the channel device back over to a d-light acx16 without any error messages. This may be a issue that has just not come up yet. It may crash and burn miserably if you try to output it to a acx16 controller since its a color fade command on a flat color channel. I think further testing is required by someone with a FF unit to answer this question ------------- Chris www.lightsonsixth.com |

It won't be tonight, but I will test this. Perhaps someone may beat me to it. ------------- JonB - D-Light user |

If the converted channel (now non RGB) contains RGB effects, in theory it will not send those RGB commands. Just as if you pasted an RGB effect into a non RGB channel (which is possible) those commands are ignored. Even if the channel did send out the command, and if a firefly is still connected, I doubt it would actually process the commands as RGB is, well, "special". That's a lot of what if's that would need to be met and is therefore not likely to happen. ------------- ~Jonathan |

You may still need both D-light's "Hardware Utility" and "Firmware Updater". They are D-lights diagnostics and updateing software, they are not ment to runs shows or do much else. I believe that the latest version (2.1.1 as of today) does have a new Firefly tab in it. ------------- Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights. http://www.frappr.com/dlight - D-Light users Unite!

| Yes. You should be using the latest version of HWUTil unless you have VERY, VERY old (read: original ACx8's) hardware. |
