Hi Torsten.

I refer .. Liveprompter Manual page 5 Section 5. The Song Display Screen.

Element 5 play/pause button.

"The play/pause button (5): it starts, pauses, and continues scrolling. Also, it allows you to
continue scrolling when paused by a command."

I am using a tablet, I tap on this element to move through the song. When at the end of the song

I would like the next tap on this element to result in an advance to the next song. I am aware of the "next-song button.

But, visually it's an easy focus keeping it all on the same button like a universal key. Anything I can plug into the .ini

that would result in that functionality?

Cheers,

Andy.

Hi Andy

no, there is no setting like that - and I'm not likely to create one; that would go counter to my ideas behind the interface design. Why have two buttons for the same function?

It's different with external pedals - there you are constrained by the number of buttons you have, so it makes sense to have a pedal that changes its function defined by context (universal key) - that helps go throuch a show with just one pedal.

But that makes no sense with a user interface where you have all buttons readily available all the time.

Cheers
