Effect offsets not aligning properly in combination effects

Leggy.
I guess it popped up when the fade between effects was implemented.
Robbie Bruce explained it to me why this happens and how it can be solved. Have to look if I can find his email

That'd great to see that Marc, thanks.

Leggy, like just talked about it, thats something I discovered a while ago.
At this time I had been told that there will be a sync-efx option coming and that it is almost done.
But it nover showed up.
@ Chris M: maybe you remember the email-conversation we had together with Robbie, it was Dec 2013 ;)

I'm also fustrated by the new way fx transition. Since I have to program around it now all it does is add to my workload, and get in the way. Just give us a global rate master and the old transition method. Problem solved.

I'm also having other issues with fx.
When I select fixtures and apply any of the default intensity/shutter fx, the fixtures start the effect, but also recive an intensity value of 100%. So every time I apply these fx I have to set the int to 0, then undo int. It's the same when I make an intensity effect in the table from scratch.
