Updating FX in Cues to different number of heads

[headytech]

Say I have my show file setup where I have FX based playbacks that I have programmed with the maximum number of fixtures I would use in a show, let's say 16. Now let's say I do a show where I only want to use 10 of those fixtures, but don't want to have to completely reprogram my FX. Is it possible to just edit the cue so that it updates to the new number of fixtures I'm using?

I feel like I've definitely seen a post about this before and also feel like the answer was unfortunately no, unless using group FX but it seems like something that should really be implemented!

Oh actually I think I figured it out. Remove FX Head seems to do the trick.

Use ADD group FX instead of Add FX. Then change the number of fixtures in the group.

Well I can't find that remove FX head button anymore which is unfortunate. Everytime I add group FX it just treats the group like it was 1 head, so if the group contains 16 fixtures they all pulse on and off if it is an intensity effect.

Am I doing something wrong?

That's normal with a group FX. But once you did add the FX, you can change the field in column GROUPs in to ALL CHANS.
