Editing Cue Fade and Delay Times
Editing fade times and delay times is carried out in the same way as
editing the cue output levels, ie load the cue into the programmer,
adjust the times as necessary, then record the data back into the
cue using the UPDATE key – see previous section.
The fade and delay times can also be globally edited from the
Cue
Stack Window
. Select the fade up, fade down, or attribute fade
field in the window, press the ENTER key, enter the required time(s)
and then press ENTER to complete.

Cue Stack Window
.
