live.button and live.text always midi mappable in Ableton

Hello,

I noticed that live.button and live.text are always midi mappable in Live although the option "Visible to Mapping" is turned off. Is this a bug or has this option nothing to do with Live midi mappings? If so, what is the "Max Mapping Feature" from the tooltip?

I guess it was to late last night and I was unable to read the documentation.
The Max Mappings feature is described there, I just couldn't find it.

Besides that its a shame that you can't turn on/off Visible to Mapping for Ableton specifically.

you can turn off visible to mapping for ableton specially with "automated and stored/stored only/hidden". but for me it's a shame that it's not possible for example to map a parameter without automating it and vice versa.

Oh, I did not know that. Thanks a lot for that tip. Since I don't want to automate the buttons and text buttons in my case this is a great solution!

But If you want to be able to map your buttons, they will always be recorded and automated...I think it's often a problem
