Bug Fixes & The Next Version

Originally posted by LightsOnLogan I know I know.... as LC said the bug list grew very rapidly beyond what was fixable in one week.   Hang in there... while not all bugs will be fixed for the next version, the highest priority ones will.  In order of priority:   1 - Bugs that prevent a show from running at all 2 - Not a show stopper, but there isn't a workaraound either 3 - Things with a workaround 4 - Interface annoyances   Exceptions: We are adding an RGB color picker and a "create controller" wizard while fixing the bugs.   Now that we are in October things move a bit slower as every change to the code has to be reviewed very carefully to prevent completely destabilizing Aurora so close to the Christmas season.  We hope to have RGB, controller wizard, and bugs of type 1 & 2 above completely ready by November 1.    At least I sure hope we do... I have a show to set up and lots of sequences to create as well!!!  I haven't started anything on my own display yet... which means I am way behind this year!

Actually, the RGB tool will be usable on any supported devices (the channel properties will show 3 device/channel options... one for red, one for green, and one for blue).  Yes, this means you can drive red, green, and blue "color wash" floodlights from an AC or DC controller and use the color picker to choose what color to throw at the house.

Will the color picker  allow us to have multiple colors on one channel while designing sequences or is it just for Firefly.

That was posted BEFORE we started having as-then unknown issues. We have to put those fires out first before proceeding any further.
