EuControl -- copy/paste/move Soft Key settings?
I use Avid Control on my iPad and have a question regarding EuControl's functionality in programming Soft Keys...
Is it possible to copy the command function and tile labeling of a given soft key (or a factory soft key on a preset page) and re-assign it to another key? As my setup evolves it would be great to be able to move functions around that way rather than re-programming the new key from scratch, but I don't currently see any way to accomplish it. Hopefully there's a way to do this, and I'm just missing something obvious at the moment. If not....well, here's a request to developers at Avid to add that capability to the EuControl app. It would be an enormous time saver. |

Re: EuControl -- copy/paste/move Soft Key settings?
From what I remember, completely revamping the Soft Keys editor is on Avid's list, but is a fairly large undertaking and has been superseded a bit by smaller improvements that can be implemented more quickly. But I think that we are likely to see this happen before too long, hopefully.

BIG +1
It would also be great if you could reshuffle panels in the Control app like apps on a phone screen.

Re: EuControl -- copy/paste/move Soft Key settings?
I've been using EuControl for years now and it's always been very frustrating that there are no copy/paste functions for Soft Key panels, individual buttons, functions and labels.
If there were, it would make life much easier, and enable the creation of much more streamlined workflows. As it is, the work involved in modifying and/or creating new panels of soft keys makes it just too arduous. Please bring this application into the 21st century... |

This is a consistent source of frustration for me as well.

Re: EuControl -- copy/paste/move Soft Key settings?
It's obvious that the software designers do not actually USE the software or this would have been done on rev 1.
I did figure a workaround. You can edit the .xml file (windows) and move/copy/paste buttons but it is a PITA compared to a FEATURE called move/copy/paste
