Console Mode on Nomad -> Bring back Element Option

I work with a number of schools that have Element consoles and are not likely to update to the Element2 soon. I have been encouraging them to purchase the Student/Educational Packages with Gadget for training and to allow students to work offline (off console). They are still using the Element Console in situ, so it would be lovely if they still had access to the Element Popup Virtual Keyboard (as well as the Element2 Popup Virtual Keyboard).

This would be let them take advantage of their muscle memory and not need to learn two different configurations (one for off, one for on).

I would imagine there are a number of others who would be interested in this as well. Feel free to chime in!

Thanks,

Andrew

I have the same issue. I guess I could install an older version of Nomad, but I dont really know how far back to go, and if I do will the functionality be the same as an Element which has been updated to the latest software release.

You probably just have to learn the different keyboard layouts.

They are different between Nomads and the Ion and that was when the Ion was a current product, so I don't think they will give you the option of a keyboard layout that matches the original element.

It might be nice if you could choose from various different keyboard layouts on Nomads but if you have the real desks you can't change the physical layout !!

I have re-installed 2.6.2 Nomad which was pre Element 2 and it seems to be working OK transferring the show between desk and Nomad, I dont really need all the enhanced features of 2.7 so fingers crossed it won't cause any compatibility issues, I shall be very careful with backups on this first show to make sure I can always go back if necessary.
