Nope, definitely not intented - something must have slipped from my thinking.

Of course, if any of the controlled faders reaches 0 or 1, the relative positioning is lost - I'd have to impose a limit so that the faders are only moving by the master fader IF they have not reached 0 or 1. A bit tricky but definitely doable

Hey,

I see, I was thinking more in DAW subgroup behaviour, logic for example stores the initial balance values and you can offset them up/down, so it has some limits, but I guess that is normal because offset works modifying the user input from the faders.

Other option could be to calculate the min/max values in the vector that master fader needs to move, I've attached an example with a Fader, easy to translate to canvas though, just notice that master fader resets to 0.5 once you make a faders settings and then you can offset (scaled) all faders up/down , replace fader with a no cap canvas would do the same thing.

Anyways you know, many ways to archive a thing. ;)

Cheers!

Thanks again for the help here.

Antonio's first version is exactly what I am looking for!

This is a really awesome community! I'm just amazed to find people so willing to put in the time to program these modules for a random guy on a forum!

A million thanks

Hi JonHems,

No prob, glad that helps.

Community is crucial for apps like lemur imho, forum goes a bit quiet sometimes, but you'll find always some users like softcore Macciza, Joe, trying to help often , I try too if I have time though.

Btw- I've uploaded the faders gem to modules section, ready to use up to 16 faders if needed:

@Joe very easy, I am sure that you figured the way to do that already ;)

Cheers,
