-How do I freeze a page in Suite 2?
I used the F12 key in Suite 1, and now I don't know how to use the freeze option with a key.

-How do I assign a key to a scene or switch? In suite 1, i used Ctrl + KEY, is there such a way in Suite 2? I know how assign a key in Settings - Trigger, but i would like to know if there's a faster way like in Suite 1.

-I liked to change the Phase of a Scene using the keys Ctrl+shift+Scene. But now it doesn't work. Is there a way to change the phase of a scene with keys?
Thanks!

shift + right klick -> "Link to Keyboard" and then press the key you want to get linked.
And in the manual -> http://www.nicolaudie.com/online_manual ... dfPgY7.htm
eg the Flash mode can be changed in the shift + klick -> Settings -> Triggering later on.

For MIDI it is the same way. Plus that i recommand for Midi going to the consol window to check/changes settings for the Relevant Buttons there.
Eg i assining a Fader as Scene Dimmer and to activate a Scene. Once done i you need to adjust the level for activation so that the Scene becomes aktive from 1-127 (straight when you start moving the Fader) and to do this you need the Consol Window showing your consol (Right klickt on the relevant Fader/Button)

-I liked to change the Phase of a Scene using the keys Ctrl+shift+Scene. But now it doesn't work. Is there a way to change the phase of a scene with keys?

- When a Scene is aktive on the page top there is a tab showing the Phase/Speed/Dimm/Size
- shift+right and then show eg the Phase dial. It is shown on the Scene Button then.
- shift - click on a Button show a seperate small window with teh Dials.

-How do I freeze a page in Suite 2?

You can freeze a page by checking the Freeze checkbox on the pages panel. This is the 3rd checkbox along next to the lock checkbox
You can link this to the console by right clicking the page on the pages panel and selecting Link to console->page freeze
You should be able to assign a keyboard shortcut to this by going to Software Preferences->shortcuts, however it appears that we have forgotten to add this, it will be available in the next beta next week

Shift+Right click-> link to keyboard. There is a reason we had to scrap the old method...but I can't remember right now!

This is now done by adding a phase dial. This can be linked to the console

THANKS for the answers. I'm used to work with the keyboard, and definately it was faster with the old suite 1 and the old way of working.

For the freeze, I think it was cool and fast, in a certain moment to press F12. I hope it's available in the next beta.

And why did you scrap the old method to link to keyboard? Now It takes more time to assign the keys, when in the old method it was faster and easier. Is there a chance to continue using the old method in the next beta?

I guess i would have to get used to the new method.

I had a look into this and actually this was just forgotten...it won't be in the next release (tomorrow) but it'll be in the release after (april)
