Custom layout
This feature allows you to fully customize the mixer view to match your workflow and create new views for different purposes (e.g. fixed installations).
Structure
You can create an unlimited number of layouts, each of them has a set of UI elements. Note: Landscape and portrait position/sizes are stored independent from each other. To edit any of the other orientations just rotate your device in the editor.

Quickstart
- Open the menu of the main view
Menu -> Setup -> Layouts
- Press the
+
menu entry to add a new layout - Add and move UI items to your taste
Layout Settings
While in the layout editor, press the gear icon
in the top menu to open the layout settings.
From there you can rename your layout or change the mode.
Layout modes
The layout modes option configures when/how the layout is applied to the app.
Mode | Description |
---|---|
Default | The layout is only shown if the user manually opens the layout |
Override mixer layout | The layout replaces the stock mixer layout, |
Open on startup | Opens the layout on startup. |
The Open on startup
option is designed for scenarios where you want to limit the parameters accessible (the top menu is empty).
Additionally it's possible to password protect going back to the main mixer.
This allows you to create a dedicated layout (for example for a wall mounted tablet) and completely limit access to anything else in the app.
