Hi all, 

Is there a way to show all cues that target a specific cue?
And if not, could this be a future feature request?

As in, you select an audio/video/group cue and can then hit 'show cues that target this cue' and fade/pause or other cues that target this cue are highlighted?

This would be super useful on ambience or background cues.

thanks
john

There is some related cues functionality already built-in: https://qlab.app/docs/v5/tools/tools-menu/#highlight-related-cues.

We talked about this in March / April 2016. I came up with this: https://wiki.allthatyouhear.com/doku.php#navigate_cues_with_shared_cue_target. Don’t recall ever using it though!

Pretty simple to get the list of cues targeting the selected cue:

tell application id "com.figure53.QLab.5" to tell front workspace to set relatedCues to cues whose cue target is last item of (selected as list)
