Copy Cue to Multiple Cues Syntax

[DALX]

During a lighting workshop last week I was asked can you copy one cue to multiple cue locations at the same time to speed up plotting. I tried Copy To 5.10.15.20 as a syntax and it copied a cue to cue numbers 5, 10, 15 and 20 using the period . as a separator. I have tried to find this in the ZerOS handbook but have not found it. I know it works but I was hoping to find a description to see more Copy syntax options ? Can someone point me in the right direction please ?

Hi @DALX,

Slight query - I can't seem to replicate your copying procedure using syntax.

Typing the syntax to copy cue 1 on playback 1 to cues 5, 10, 15, 20 gives invalid syntax at the second period (1/1 Copy To 5.10. <-) as only one decimal point is allowed. This means cue 1 can only be copied to cue 5.1, disallowing the period to be used as a separator.
Alternatively, using the copy window (Z/Shift -> Copy).. From 1 To 5.10.15.20 returns a new cue numbered 5.1. ZerOS is interpreting my entry as a point cue here too rather than multiple cue numbers, given that point cue numbers can only be up to 2 decimal places. The second period invalidates the further numbers anyway.

In ZerOS, you can copy multiple cues to a single cue number. That single cue number acts as the starting number. For example, copying cues 1>5 to cue 10 will create cues 10 to 15. Copying cues 1+3+5 to cue 30 will create cues 30, 31 and 32. In the Copy Window, only the 'From' input box allows + and > whereas the 'To' input box doesn't.

Please could you elaborate further on what you're doing to achieve this? I might be missing something.
Many thanks
