For a quick example, I have 2 scenes:
Scene 1: 8 RGBW Fixtures, each alternating red or green (3sec fade in, 5 sec fade out)
Scene 2: All 8 Fixtures set to Full Red (2 sec fade in, 0 sec fade out)
I put 2 buttons in a solo frame, and assign one to Scene 1, and then Assign the other to Scene 2.
When I press scene 1, the lights do what I expect, however when I press scene 2, The lights that were already red, go off completely, and the ones that were green fade out to nothing.
Is it something I'm doing wrong?
The actual workspace is a little more complex than just that, so here's a zip of the workspace and the fixture files I had to create: http://www.altoonalights.com/qlight.zip
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
the problem is that your multipage frame is a solo frame, and you have a button for the same function on two pages (All Red). When you push one, the other is stopped and that means the function is immediately stopped. Until we fix QLC+ (I haven't found a solution yet), create a copy of All Red function and assign it to the second button.

I can reproduce the behavior with git master. I haven't found the cause yet.
Nick,

For developers: The problem is here: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/blob/master/ui/src/virtualconsole/vcsoloframe.cpp#L160
the widgets are different, but control same function (which has been just started, so it'll be stopped).
Yes, this issue also has been reported here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/qlcplus/discussion/general/thread/8581ad12/
I'm on it.
Fix open for discussion:

OK, completely makes sense, and that fixed the issue!
