MagicQ User Manual 118 Version 1.3.0.0

When this feature is used to back-up multiple consoles, it is important that different show file names are

used on each of the other consoles – otherwise files from different consoles will overwrite each other on

the back-up console.

Note that files will only be copied from consoles that have the “auto backup” option set to “yes” or “on

changes”. Files will not be copied from consoles that do not have this set (e.g. when the playback mode

is set to “Safe”). This avoids any performance impact from copying of files from live consoles.

When set to “Auto copy and run show” MagicQ copies the files as above. It then load one of the shows

that it has copied. If there are multiple consoles on the network then it will always run the show file

from the same console.

This feature can be used to back up show files from PCs running MagicQ PC as well as from consoles –

these PCs must have the drive where MagicQ is installed shared on the network (e.g. share C: as C).

20 Execute Window

The Execute Window is a special window designed to allow the user to customise the look and feel of

the MagicQ. This layout of the window is configurable by the user and can contain Groups, Palettes,

Macros, Cues and Cue Stacks.

20.1 Design View

The user simply specifies a grid of buttons (using the Set Grid Size soft button) and then copies the

relevant items from other windows. For example, to place a Group in the Execute Window; go to the

Group Window, press Copy, select the Group, and then go to the Execute Window and select the box to

place the Group.

Multiple items can be selected for copying into the Execute Window.

There are two modes, View Design and View Execute. Use View Design to design the grid size and to

place items in the grid. Use View Execute for playback.

You can also assign Special Functions to items in the Execute grid. These include Execute Page Up,

Execute Page Down, Close, Blind and Clear. Press the ASSIGN SPECIAL soft button.

20.2 Full Screen View

The Execute Window can be run in full-screen mode, thus allowing the whole of the screen to be

customised. Selecting the “Run in Execute Window” option in the Setup Window ensures that the

console / MagicQ PC will start up in the Execute Window. Note that on MagicQ PC, the buttons on the

full screen Execute Window will only work when a MagicQ PC Wing is connected. The size of the full

screen Execute Window can be set via the Set Win Size button – this defaults to 1024 by 768 for

MagicQ PC and 800 by 600 for the console.

It is possible to protect the Execute Window such that operators only see the Execute Window and can

not use the main MagicQ application windows. From the Execute Window set up a password using the

Set Password soft button. If an operator tries to close the window then they have the choice of shutting

down or entering the password to re-enter the main MagicQ application windows.
