The Groups window
When writing cues for shows with many channels, not all channels will fit on the Sheet window at the same time. Channel groups can be used to not always show all channels, but only those subsets of channels for which we are currently setting intensity levels.
The Groups window can be used to define channel groups. New groups can be added, and channels can be assigned to those groups.
Use Window > Groups to open the Groups window.
