    HI, we are using DMX on a large project with SchedulePlus, is there a way we can show the colour mix to the client.
    Example, if we have 32%Red 70%Green and 54%Blue this will give a particular colour, but how can I show this colour on the screen, because the client wont be able so see the actual lighting from where the PC is.

    You can do it using Logic and SetBrushColour + Rectangle to draw a box with the selected colour. SetBrushColour takes a single integer argument and it is the usual 3 byte RGB value so just calculate it from the selected RGB percentages you have. It is listed as a CTC only function but it should be in SchedulePlus as well. It won't be exactly the same colour because completely different display mechanisms but it'll show roughly what the selected colour will be.
