IPCB Fader

Okay, I don't really know how to explain this feature I'm looking for but I'll try. 
If I have a scene that is attached to an IPCB fader with a bunch moving heads going out in the audience. The reason I made it IPCB is that during a live show I want to be able to control the fly out in a nice way (time, range etc). But here's the thing:
I would really like to have the intensity going up to 100% once the fader has left zero.
How can I accomplish that? I've tried with different macros to other qlists that only controls the movings intensity parameters and with a GL macro I do get the fixtures to reach 100% at once, but then I need to realese that q when i pull my IPCB fader to the bottom.:17:
Is there a way arrange this? In one way or another?
:sad2:

I'm not in front of a console right now, so I can't try this...but...
Try setting the Path of your intensity to 'Start'. Leave your position Path on 'Default' or 'Linear'.
More can be found on this in the manual. Section 20.1.3.
Good luck!

This problem will go away once defect #10694 has been addressed.
Just to toss another idea out, does anyone think that it would be useful to have the ability to trigger a comment macro when a playback gets released, or would that add unnecessary confusion?
I don't think I would use it much...but I've ended up using (<will ferrel voice> and LOVING! </will ferrell voice>) every CM in existence, so 'never say never'.
I'm still waiting for the DTA (Disable TCode on All lists) macro that was discussed in another thread.
Although I did recently deduce that you can use ranges with the DT comment macro. Very handy.
Worth mentioning that this ability is not indicated in the manual. Section 29.1 should either list 'ranges' as a general capability in CMs or should be listed next to every applicable Macro, just as it is shown next to GM, HM, and RM.

in your scene, include the intensity at 100, and add an effect on intensity..eff needs to be like this:
value 100%
fade 0
delay 0
path start
size 800%
rate= 0.1
ofset 0
length 200%
table step
nshots -
this will get your very close to what you wan't.. the first 12.5% of your fader will have an effect on it, but since you've set your rate to 0.1, this will take a long time to be seen on stage.. once you've hit 12.5% on your fader the intensity will stay at 100, since it's multiplied by 8 in the effect(800%)..
-oh, your scene master needs to be fade ipcb
good luck!
Thanx

Kudos.
-man, i need to find a hobby!
