Console buttons

Post by Dojec »

I have another question about designing your console.

I create a console with 20 buttons for instance in the console editor.
I save it and load it in suite2 to add my controls to it.
If everything is finished I would like to add/delete some buttons in the console editor.
I save it again, but when I load the console layout in the suite2 again, then, even with keep settings, the controls I assigned to the buttons are shifted.

So it looks like if you program button 1 to 20 in the console editor, then afterwards you delete button 15 for instance, instead of having button 1 to 14 and 16 to 20, it seems to be renumbered from 1 to 19. Meaning that what you programmed for button 20 is now assigned to button 19.

This is a real pain as it takes a lot of time to assign all controls to these buttons.
Is there a sollution for this?

Hi Dojec,

There is no "id" to identify the objects of the console.
So, the order of the objects in suite2 is made by file reading order... it's a cheap method.

I have spoke about that with the developper and there is no workaround at this time.
