REQ: Automatic Browse mode when scrolling

I think someone mentioned this but not sure.  Can we request an option to automatically engage browse mode when using the track selector on a controller/CDJ.  

 

When I have my FX and sampler open I only get a 3 lines of the browser.  Can you forward a request to the development team to automatically go to Browse mode when scrolling more than one or two tracks. After selecting a track to a deck, it should return to the last view.  Basically the same workflow as hitting Spacebar before loading a track and then hitting it again after choosing the track.

Obviously this should be disabled if using two screens, or if the user does't want the feature (add a simple checkbox in preferences).

 

thanks!

Personally, I don't think this is necessary but it got 3 votes so I'll open a request for it.  Stay tuned for feedback/updates.

thats a great idea. For now i have been detaching the library and keeping it behind and have a shortcut set to bring it forward and back which works pretty well

Got my vote, beats the space bar workaround. Not because I'm that lazy, but more hands on controller less on keyboard can only be a good thing. Surely this is fairly simple to integrate?

I've actually been thinking more about this and I have changed my opinion.  I DO feel that adding this feature would be beneficial.  I passed it along to the engineering team.  Let's see if they agree!

Great news. Really simple, turn the encoder, full screen browser, with a time setback (5s) to minimise when it's let go. Maybe a switch in the settings to enable / disable?

Yes, that would be huige. Either 5-10 seconds without a selection will return to regular view, or obviously, if a selection is made then back to regular view. 

Since most DJs use a 13" macbook, having 2 decks+FX+ sampler or 4 decks+FX almost completely removes the browser window on the bottom. Mark, glad you agree with this feature request.  Thanks
