Yes - exactly that sort of thing! And let me tell you (maybe you already know) the first time you sit in front of a desk like that, you freeze, 'cos your mind can't figure out what to do first (too many choices...) The people that fly these desks all the time don't see the knobs any more, they see groups and functions - much higher level. They only see the individual knobs when their mind drills down to a specific function. > I take it the OP is probably doing this sort of thing for midi. > Having all the widgets in a scrollable display would get desirable > results I'd think.

But I still think some higher abstraction might help! _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
