Again, you're asking a question for a custom fixture without showing us what's inside that fixture.
Please attach it here. It's probably still broken,

Normally when you create a new scene, you add a fixture and start playing parameters, you start to see changes in the fixture !!, you say it works in simple desk but not in a scene? if when you create the scene, add fixture, and modify parameters, nothing happens, and something is failing, is the fixture added to the scene correct? the DMX address is correct? Are you adding your fixtures in the patch with the correct DMX address?
If everything is correct and (knowing how it works) does not work, a bad installation can be the problem?
If you give us more data maybe we can understand where the problem is .....

the process of what i did step by step is

after turning on qlc + i added a new generic rgb fixture im the mode of 4 channel dimmer rgb
checked that the dimmer fader and all 3 colors worked in the simple desk (they did)
after that i went to the function tab and added a new scene ,named it and added the generic rgb fixture to it
turned on all the faders in the new tab it generated and attempted to turn it on using the fadres, with no response

As I explained in the other thread - in simple mode ... are the buttons below the sliders lit red? Then you are in 'overrule mode'.
Click the buttons so the become grey again and then start doing things inside your cues...

Thanks guys, this worked for me too. Out of interest and so I can fully understand, what is the purpose of the simple desk override?

A use case could be if you want a channel to stick to a value whatsoever. The shutter on older movers f.i. Or a smoker (hazer)
