Stop all FX / Panic button

Hi Claude,

Is there a command line command to stop and clear all effects?
I would find this handy,

A) teching situations, where you want to quickly jump into a cue that also starts an effect, but then the designer might to quickly jump back and see the transition again etc,

and B) in "panic" situations, where you need to quickly jump in a show (say, actors have skipped a page of dialogue), and you pass the cue with the EFXstop...

I would then use that command to attach a MIDI button to this...

The latest build (7608A) has a Stop All menu command. This stops the currently running cue, stops all running effects, and clears all effects.

Also added is a MIDI/OSC action command, "EFXstopALL" which stops all running effects, and clears all effects.

Note: The "EFXstop" MIDI/OSC action command is still available. This stops all effects but does not clear them.
