what is the quickest and easiest way to program a slow fade to dim the lights or fade between colors?

Check the fade box for that scene then go into your steps box to the right hand side. This is all in the editor tab just so you know. Double click in the time boxes and select your fade and hold time and if you want to add a step click on the green plus sign icon. I believe that us right. Let me know If any of this is confusing you. Sincerely,

Any chance you could post a screen shot of the fade box you're referring to? I don't know exactly where/what that is.

Awesome, thank you!

Thanks xoticpt! much appreciated! Sincerely,
