I think I may have a poor man's solution for ya! I don't think our x10 pro's will agree with it, but it seems to work for me...

I have created a macro with a single on/off control that sends to a module a 1% gain - in effect OFF and a 100% gain for an ON. This will allow me to soft start the lights since they are already on. You might want to consider making a second macro with only 33% and 66% for the on/off positions of the macro.

I use the macro to control several x10 addresses, I have full theatre dimming options for 8 lights, and full x10 on/off for drapes and soon to be screen control.

Hope this helps. And to everyone else, if I am in any way causing a fire hazard or bulb damage???? please reply. I've used this solution for 9 months now with no problems...

Ohhh yea, I have the activehome controller, x10 to ir converter and a proto ( which really ties everything together!)
