Wire and UI Elements and Lighting Control

I'v just started down the road of Lighting Control. To do this I have started using wire to build custom patches to control some movers. I would love to have some more UI options.

1.Sliders for INT input would be nice. I can use float In and set it to an Int in the patch but the decimals numbers on the interface upset me when I know it is a DMX address.

2. XY slider not just for this use case, there are plenty of things in Resolume that an XY element could be useful for.

3. Pan Tilt controller (Custom Color UI).
I have been experimenting with using the Color In and the UI it has all the elements I need. I hook Hue to Pan and hack Saturation and Brightness to manage Tilt. (The tilt functionality is a work in progress) But all the elements are there I can also use the HSB Sliders to to rotate in single directions and the Palette as preset locations. So it has all the bits I need I would just like to rename the parameters and drop the colours from them.

You can map DMX to an int, it doesn't need to have a slider to move. You can also hold down the mouse button and drag an int to have the same affect as a slider. But having a slider for int would be a +1 for me :)

How did your Wire patch to control your movers end up working? I want to do the same, control a few movers to match the pixel and projection mappIng. If you have something cool worked, I'd be happy to buy it in JuiceBar(?) Or do you mind sharing your Wire project/patch? I'm more than a little flumoxed on where to begin to do it in Wire. I've built one of my mover's (JMAZ Crazy Beam 40 Fusion) fixture in Arena's Fixtrure Editor, I *am* able to send DMX to that fixture, so my ArtNet node is working, I'm sending DMX data, bUt the channels I'm wanting to be null channels, like Macros, are still sending DMX values. Anyway, I know building a Wire patch to control/coinvert color information to Pan, tilt etc is going to be the ""way to go, I just don't know the way.
