Show chain name / id when adjusting a mixer parameter #1232

Open riban-bw opened 1 week ago

riban-bw commented 1 week ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When adjusting a mixer parameter with one of the encoders, the parameter name and value is shown in the topbar but there is no indication of which chain this affects. This is particularly useful for the main volume that I always forget which knob controls.

Describe the solution you'd like Include the chain name in the topbar.

Describe alternatives you've considered Learn and look to see what the knobs do.

Additional context Need to avoid losing the useful data (parameter name and value) if chain name is too long. Maybe add to end of message. May be advantageous for other controls, e.g. in controller view.

Implemented in Vangelis (testing). Tested and ready for deploy in next point release.

This does not work when driven from MIDI mapped controller.

Fixed in local dev version. Not yet committed. Waiting for code style change freeze to end.
