/ Batch operations
Batch operations
Batch operations let you update a property on multiple cues simultaneously. Instead of opening each cue editor individually, select a group of cues and apply the change once.
Selecting multiple cues
Click a cue in the list to select it, then:
Ctrl+click(orCmd+click) to add individual cues to the selection.Shift+clickto select a contiguous range from the last selected cue.Ctrl+Ato select all cues in the song.
The batch toolbar
When more than one cue is selected, a "Set on selected" toolbar appears above the cue list. This toolbar contains the batch operations available for the current selection.
Available batch operations
- Color — assigns the same color to all selected cues.
- Trigger mode — sets Auto, Manual GO, or Follow Previous on all selected cues.
- Standby time — sets the same standby lead time (in seconds) on all selected cues.
- Department targets — adds or replaces department assignments on all selected cues. Choose whether to add to existing assignments or replace them entirely.
Click Apply after choosing the setting. A toast notification shows how many cues were updated.
Undoing batch operations
Press Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z) to reverse a batch operation and restore the previous values on all affected cues.
Batch operations are especially useful after importing a cue structure from a template — you can quickly re-assign department targets or standardize trigger modes across dozens of cues in seconds.
