Joystick to M4L mapper/ how to make it versatile and turn button to slider?

Hi there,
I just fastly combined this patch to map any HID input to ableton live.
( it's my firsts patches so i don't even unerstand some of the things i used but )
I would like it to be more dynamic and adapt to different inputs.
i.e.:
-toggle could turn into slider regarding the float presence and if position changes in the hid list
- dead inputs could become grey stripes or even disappear,
- a "hide" button to mask min/max/map buttons and keep only the visual feedback, is it possible to fold a live M4L device in its presentation?

I absolutely don't know how this is possible with max, (but i'm pretty sure it is...)

Best regards,
Ben

Maybe you should post your patch for us to tell something about it...

Here's a few things i'd like to solve:

- adaptive input ( continuous controller or bang or toggle), regarding input style ( with a maximum object changing slider to button)
- switch button between trig or toggle
- adaptive output ( doesn't work on solos for dark reason "switch something"...
- map one boutton or one axis to several destinations
- exact 0 when changing on split axis mode (maybe smth else than via set 0)
- preset managing ( one button to rule them all!)
thanks for your remarks and improvements !

updated: toggle trig/ adaptiv autoscaling axis/

hard to replace button by sliders in case they exchange regarding joystick model...

Dear Users,
I'd need to add increment possibility... hard conserving the adaptive swith types/... any ideas?

then i wonder why I can't map start clip buttons, it does'nt work well with ableton looper rec button (that allows to maintain rec to clear loop)..?
and why the name retreiving doesn't include track id?

Thanks for advices
regards

Hi everyone,
I got a problem with the mapping boutton allowing to click on "map" and then assign a live function,
could anybody send me a mapping button that work with live 10?
Therefore i could update my patch and make it usable again ...
Thanks so much !
