Mapping something (e.g. loop size/out) to jog wheel

You can find a lot of documentation in the www, all about qml and how to incorporate javascript. It's a lot of stuff though, and a lot of the code NI uses is not in the qml files but hardcoded in the exe file. NI never provided any documentation.

I will place MIDIknobs 1-4 and MIDIknobs 5-8 assignments in the appropriate locations and remove any MIDIbuttons and MIDIfaders instances from the code and clean it up. ...

I missed placing Top/Bottom-Deck condition on the JogTouch and the JogTurn assignments. According to my testing, this should solve it:

That's cool stuff, very nice to hear! I'm glad this collaboration is spurring your creativity. Also i'm surprised that you didn't stumble on the SamplePage condition earlier. It's working like this ever since the first implementation of RemixDecks, in 2.65 i think. If you use them, maybe leave 1 or 2 unused, in case a user of that mapping wants to employ Remix Sets. Unless this is going to be all for your own enjoyment only. ^^

I'm glad MadLee kicked this off. I've been wanting to do something with the JogWheels ever since adapting Joe's ScreenMod to adjust the MasterTempo with the JogWheels. But this is even better, a universal tool for MIDI-mapping. I am sure it will come to good use.

Btw, i can still make the standard GRID functions available, maybe by using GRID+HOLD, activating the JogFX by a short tap only. And then there is the double TAP, which i figured out recently to combine with the use of a single button. So, if you have any ideas what to bind an additional overlay, just shoot. I think i am going to go ahead and put the button in re-enable the GRID-adjust in the next few days, maybe throw in the TapDeck-function for SHIFT, which i am really missing since the Mk3 models came out.

The jogwheel has a movement safety zone for the MIDI knob that is a lot smaller (minimalTickValue = 0.0005) than the standard GRID-adjust function (minimalTickValue = 0.0035).

You can increase it and see if that makes the controller less vulnerable to expected vibrations (line 123):

  Wire {
    enabled: module.active && gridAdjustEnableProp.value;
    from: "%surface%.jogwheel.rotation";
    to: EncoderScriptAdapter {
      onTick: {
        const minimalTickValue = 0.0005;
        const rotationScaleFactor = 1;
        if (value < -minimalTickValue || value > minimalTickValue)
          midiKnob5678.value = midiKnob5678.value + value * rotationScaleFactor;
      }
    }
  }

The line directly below (rotationScaleFactor = 1) determines the rate of change of the MIDI knob value, if you wish to play with that.

Happy days. 🦋

Edit: qml with the following changes:

        const minimalTickValue = 0.002;
        const rotationScaleFactor = 0.8;

You will have to move the jogwheel slightly faster for the MIDI knob to respond.

It should be possible to make the screen show nothing but black pixels with a press of a button (or better, SHIFT+ button). I will investigate. That flicker is unbearable to look at.

And that concept is looking awesomely cool! I have to admit i miss the days of my S4Mk2 just for the JogFX. But it's in good hands now. ^^

That second variant i posted is just in case for a quick try. And you can always adjust those values yourself so your S4 reacts exactly the way you want it to.
