Hello all,

i am using the novation launchpad mk2 on my raspberry pi (qlcplus_raspbian_wheezy_20160306)
It works fine. Now i like to create a slider (in qlc its easy to do) and i like to controll it with the launchpad.
but my launchpad has only buttons (64 buttons 8x8)
is it possible to create somthing like a button:
(button on the launchpad) linkt to the slider when i press/holt the button the slider (slider in Qlc+) value goes higher (from 0 to 255)
And another button to lower the value (255 to 0)

someone any idea how to create it?

many thanks

See the attached workspace for a possible solution.
Note the use of loopback and inverted channels.
This is my solution, maybe there are better ones avaliable.
Note: you must start the "main" cue first.
There is one drawback on my solutions. The cue list widget will stop by itself when
you reach the first/last scene in the chaser if the chaser is a "run once" chaser - don´t
know how to prevent qlc+ from doing this.
Anyway, I think it´s a good starting point for further explorations.
