Explanation

This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax

Programmer.Editor.ClearAll ensure the editor is empty
one by one various groups are called and a palette is applied:
- Group.RecallGroupNumeric selects a group
- Palette.ApplyPalette applies a palette to the fixtures in this group
ActionScript.SetProperty(“Palette.CurrentPaletteHandle”, handle:…) selects the palette where the result is to be stored
Palette.StoreCurrentPaletteReplace stores/replaces the target palette
a final Programmer.Editor.ClearAll clears the editor again
