Great feedback, I’ll take note of all of these. Excited to see it used in your field.

Some thoughts:

@CassLD

Button that changes Workspaces = For my system to work I need to be able to program a button to change the workspace. This way I can have a “Home Page” with 30 buttons on it and each one goes to a different workspace.

I’m thinking the way to make this extensible is to add a “OSC Loopback” toggle for widgets, that causes their OSC messages to be sent back to OSC/PILOT instead of out to the target machine. That way you can use the custom OSC messages that OSC/PILOT listens for to do custom operations. The idea here is that instead of an exploding number of widgets/parameters, this feature can be extended just by adding new custom messages.

Text Restrictions = a bunch of my personal show syntax uses symbols that are unavailable as a text input. Primarily I’m looking for < and > but a real space would be nice too and the more options the better.

Yeah, definetely.

@CassLD

Multiple Selection of Widgets = Creating layouts can be pretty tiresome without being able to select and duplicate more then 1 widget at a time. Either by holding shift or having some kind of lasso selection tool.

This is already do-able with ctrl-click.

@CassLD

Duplicate Workspace = I will have many workspaces that are similar except for some labeling and midi notes. The ability to duplicate a workspace would save a lot of time.

You can do this just with Ctrl-A to select-all, and then Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V pasting into the new workspace.
