Quick Tip Tuesday: Getting Fixed
Is there a particular Sequence that you’d like to show up on every page in your showfile? You don’t have to keep re-Assigning it on every page. Instead, locate the sequence on any Executor and FIX it. In other words, you can hit the FIX key followed by any key on the Executor and that Sequence is now Fixed.
You can quickly tell which Executors are fixed, because the background of the Executor’s title will be orange. Don’t want that Sequence Fixed any longer? No problem, use the same syntax: hit FIX followed by any key on the Executor and it will be un-Fixed.
Once the idea of FIX-ing makes sense, you might also look at the Auto-Fix options in your Sequence’s Assignment menu. This has to do with whether or not you want the Sequence carried over during a page change based on whether or not that Sequence in ON. This mode will also allow you to automatically un-FIX this Sequence when it goes OFF.
Quick Tips are exactly what the name should imply. We’re adding these to our blog in an effort to help programmers and operators of all levels. If you’d like to suggest a Quick Tip, drop us a message on this blog, or on our Facebook page, or even via Twitter.
