I'm rather new to Sunlite Suite 2 and I'd like to ask whether it is possible to move several fixtures simultaneously in real-time with the mouse. I tried to do so with an X/Y window, but this seems to work only with one fixture after the other.
A follow spot function like in Suite 1 is not available either, is it?
Thanks for your answers.

Re: Move several fixtures simultaneously
In the future we will see about adding the feature to move all fixtures at the same time within the fixture window.
For now, you could make a new button with the dimmer min/max property assigned to all fixtures XY channels, then add a live dimmer fader to the button.

Re: Move several fixtures simultaneously
I think that feature would be great. Even better, moving the fixtures in real-time with the arrow keys, in edit window or against selected fixtures from the fixtures page. That would be wonderful when the singer steps aside for a while, or moves forward to the spectators.
For example ALT+Arrow keys to move selected fixtures, in relative mode, that is, moving step by step, preserving the spacing.
I had this feature in a very cheap console i was using, an SGM Studio 24. It had a joystick which would send absolute x-y coords, while the arrow keys would increase or decrease the x-y dmx values, one by one. That was really handy :).
