Feature Request: Additional OSC Feedback and Encoder Control

I've been setting up an OSC control surface for Nomad in TouchOSC on iPad, and have been stymied by one particular missing feature, control for the Ion/Gio encoders. There are key commands for the encoder buttons (with /eos/key/...), and the Color/Focus/Image/Form/etc selection buttons, but there is no way it seems (using /eos/wheel/<something>) to control the encoder wheels for these.

Also, it would be very useful if the software transmitted the text for the Softkeys, so that a touch surface could relabel them for their function.

  • /eos/active/wheel/<index>

    The Wheels and their labels are transmitted when selecting a channel.  They are controllable and you can set them to coarse or fine mode.  

    /eos/active/wheel/3, 2

    This will increase the value of wheel 3 by 2 clicks.

    I have some touchosc layouts that use this.  Unfortunately TouchOSC doesn't have the capability to dynamically assign wheels by name which is part of the reason Patrick and I came up with oscRFR.  Our app parses out the names of the wheels and applies them to the assigned wheel.

    There is no current control of the physical encoders over OSC.  You can use the wheel element in touchosc to control an attribute but then you don't get the feedback like you do when using the wheel system.

    I hope this helps.
