Bug Description
The crossfader position indicator (whether a track is L, M, or R), is inconsistent in 2-deck mode on Latenight in the 2.2 tree. Usually it is not visible, but:
1. switch the 4-deck mode
2. change the middle decks to M
3. switch back to 2-deck mode
Sometimes the indicators stay around. Sometimes they disappear. Sometimes one stays and the other disappears. If the indicator does stay around, clicking on it changes the setting, until the setting returns to the 2-deck default, then the indicator disappears.
Either the indicators should always be visible, or switching to 2-deck mode should reset the values to the default and hide them. Hiding them without resetting the values would be confusing, because the setting could be messed up and the user will have no visible way to fix it.
Did I implement that bug/feature for the exact scenario you discovered it? ;)
The indicators are visible only if the setting differs from standart 2-deck settings.
The idea was to keep a reminder when switching from a 'twisted' 4-deck setting to 2 decks. The xFader indicators would hide as soon as xForientation is back to 'normal'.
How to reset the orienation COs when switching to 2 decks? Is that desired or dangerous?
Is it desired to keep the xfader buttons around when using a stripped-down mixer (VUs only)?
