S4MK3 & S3: Community Performance MOD (qml coding)

Hello, thanks again for the reply.
when I scroll with the Z2 Browser knob nothing happens on D2 screen, when press the Z2 Browser knob the D2 screen toggles to Playlist view and I can scroll trough playlists, press knob again goes back to Deck View.
If the D2 is focus on Deck A , and Im scrolling the playlist, and I load a Track using the "Z2 Load A" it goes back to Scratchwave View, but If I load to Deck B it stays in the PlayList view.

Im very happy with the results, Thank you

yes using the mouse, on-screen clicking "Only Browser On" , toggles the D2 Screen Wave/Playlist.Im OK with the Mapper you did, more intuitive to press the knob to toggle between screens

Z2 Load A or B I had more mapping to those buttons I didnt remember, so I mapped those Buttons to also turn OFF "Only Browser On" and now it does turn off the D2 Playlist view back to Deck View.

Thank you Sûlherokhh All the Best
