It has a delay setting but no value setting.
If I start the effect nothing happens.

It should be very nice if this shortcut is working with a delay for a smooth transition.
(the api setfader command has no delay option)

Hi,

Use the Fade function instead if you want a timed transition.

The fade effect can not stop halfway, I need to mix 50%, with setfader=128 I can do that.

Could use an overlay channel setting the alpha to 128.

My overlay channels are all in use, there are only 4 of them.
Why is there a setfader option in shortcuts when it doesn't work? :)

SetFader is used to set a specific mix value between 0 and 255
It is not designed to be used to animate the mix.

I think you misundertood me, I do not mean the api setfader command.
That is working OK (Function=SetFader&Value=128).

I want to use the Setfader shortcut command and that doesn't work.
It has only a duration parameter and no value parameter.
If I enter 128 in the duration parameter it isn't working either.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
SetFader was created for the API, but I will see about enabling it as a shortcut as well.

The "function" dropdown box for the shortcuts and api is the same so there is
going to be a few items in the list that do not apply to shortcuts, I apologise for the confusion.
thanks 1 user thanked admin for this useful post.
