    I love the idea of using a matrix in a show, but I'm finding that having used one and set it to the right length with the new duration controls that around half the time the matrix then doesn't actually stop and continues to the end of the show. I thought it was just the preview but tonight hooked up some lights and DMX values are output :(

    I've not figured out the trigger conditions yet, but suspect it might be copying and pasting an original matrix to create a second copy on the same track.

    I'm frantically programming a show for Saturday and now wondering if I trust the ones already done so don't have time to work up an example this week - just wondering if anyone else has seen this?

    Further notes from trying to fix one of my tracks.

    The matrix is an image animation.

    The behaviour seems stable (i.e. it stops on time) if the overall duration is an exact integer multiple of time with respect to the original length.

    If the length is altered, in loop or stretch, then sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

    Hello Charles,
    can you please share an example project showing the issue or write here the exact steps from an empty project to reproduce the issue ?

    Thanks
