13.40.14ex (m5) - QoL suggestions: resize the device buttons/axis list vertically

muchimi / JoystickGremlinEx

Modified version of Joystick Gremlin to add features I wanted to have but were difficult to do as just a plugin, plus I wanted to run this as 64 bit and on a more current version of Python/QT.

13.40.14ex (m5) - QoL suggestions: resize the device buttons/axis list vertically #72

Based on using the new release for testing, it was noticed that navigating through the buttons / axis of a device was taking much longer than with .13ex. Vertically, 8 buttons / axis can be displayed where .13ex would display 21 (based on a side by side comparison).

It would be ideal to reduce the vertical real estate of the fields. IMHO and probably just something to get used to.

I'll have to do another pass on the UI input widget to coerce QT to not waste all that space - it loves to waste space with this layout and I've so far avoided hardcoding heights but I may end up doing that as the QT sizing logic is not ideal in this scenario. You don't have the repeaters enabled either - that adds another line.

Input widget has been reworked in m7 and is now a super "compact" form.

Marking as implemented as of 13.40.14ex m7.
