he,
I'm Laurens and I am using freestyler for many type's of events:
Festivals, party's, concerts, theater, ...
For me it would be very helpfull to have some faders in the touchscreen interface that I could program just for my frontlights.
Since I discovered freestyler I was so suprised by it's functionality I do all of my shows whit it, exept the shows where I need more than 4 universes (but I gonna by a artnet interface so I can do 8), but it's not useful to do the frontlight's whit it because (as specialy in theater) I need fader control over it.
thanks for listening to my suggestion.
A change like this will make it just perfect for me
I just whant to thank the developers to make my life so easy, you did a great job
Laurens

if you have version 3.4.0 or higher you can add faders to touchscreen userinterface 2.
and i think you mean Midi to DMX
Strange enough you can add the Midi to dmx slider to Touchscreen UI2.
if you go to the Mid options and search for Midi to DMX here you can assaigne the Dmx channel you would like to use on your touchscreen. and you dont need a midi device to do this.
it a tricky feature..

i also use this for my frontlights.
but i also posted a link and here you can see where the Dmx channel needs to be filled in.

So I am used to UI1, and when I start it, I have a clean list of my fixtures so I can select them and just controle them.
But the UI2 is just empty and I can't find out how to config it. The only button I could find is add button but.
Do you have a guide just to set the UI2 up??

but your problem will be that UI2 doesn't have Fixture "Buttons" you realy need to have a Secondscreen for that.

I have to screens but only one is touch sensitive
Could I maybe just select my fixtures by group? That will be a good start
And I just find out how to add buttons but can I resize them?
So maybe I have one more question: You speek dutch??

ahh realy nice then it would be possible but the idea about UI2 is to build your own touchscreen interface..
Yes i do speak dutch.
But for a start look at this first:

For some reason I could not drag any button's in anymore.
Do you have a clue about what could be wrong?

Strange, the only thing i can come up is.
If you drag a button an top of a other button, it can not add the button.
only if you add the button on a Clear space of screen it will add the button?
