@ywwg I would really appreciate a review if you can! :)


By default, the screens are standalone, meaning they do not interact with the device states. This means that local state such as deck selection or shifting will not trigger any screen interaction, and thus you should expect only Deck A and B to be displayed on these screen by default, although this can be changed in the controller settings.

.. note:: it exists an API that was temporary parked that allows mappings to communicate. If you want, you may build a version of Mixxx with feature and you should be able to enable the feature in the controller settings.

Let's add a link to the branch/PR.
If someone is willing to try this it should be as easy as possible IMO.

IMO it would be better to explain the modes first then refer to them in each component section.

Are you suggesting to swap the list and table

My experience with this table:

  • the content is very wide and I have to scroll horizontally to check the description for example
  • I don't need the Variable value column. If I'd be interested, I'd look at the settings in the js file
    -> this would reduce the table width
  • in the Default column we may remove the the prefix (LEDColors etc.) and just show the values
    -> this would reduce the table width

Since 2.4 is EOL, I'm tempted to remove a lot actually, since with the SettingsAPI, you shouldn't have to edit the file, except if you are hacking around. Wdyt?

Fixed @ronso0 - my branch was quite out of date it turns out
