Description:
Introduce the ability to assign pages to custom categories (e.g., “Content Pages”, “Widget Pages”, “Utility Pages”, etc.) and use this categorization to control both navigation behavior and visibility in different modes (e.g., Edit Mode vs. Normal Mode).
Problem:
Currently, all pages are treated the same in terms of navigation and visibility. However, many users structure their sessions with specific types of pages:
  • Audio content pages (e.g. song sections)
  • Widget/control pages
  • Utility or setup pages
There’s no way to group these or to define navigation behaviors or visibility based on page type. This makes it harder to:
  • Navigate through relevant pages efficiently
  • Hide non-performance pages during live sets
  • Implement focused workflows
Proposed Solution:
  • Allow users to assign each page to a
    custom category
    (e.g., from a dropdown in Edit Mode)
  • Enable
    actions
    to scroll/navigate only within a specified category (e.g., "Next Page in Category: Content Pages")
  • Add a setting to
    hide certain categories in Normal Mode
    , but always show all in Edit Mode
Benefits:
  • Cleaner and more focused performance mode by hiding non-essential pages
  • Faster navigation by limiting page scrolling to relevant sections
  • Better organization of complex setups with many pages
  • Enhanced flexibility for designing workflows tailored to live performance, studio use, or experimentation
Examples:
  • A performer could scroll only through "Content Pages" during a live set while keeping "Widget Pages" hidden in Normal Mode.
  • An action like "Next Widget Page" could cycle through pages marked as widget pages without affecting content navigation.
