Hello,

Is there a way to use a script to create knobs and other controls?

I have a set of 30 parameters for a custom project and I wish to create 1 knob for each one of them.

This list can evolve with time so I need to be able to run again the script to recreate the control screens.

I tried to look at the script editor but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

Thanks in advance!

Not within the UI.
QLC+ project files are XML. You can write a script to create a XML file.

Thanks for your answer.

Would you know of a library, python maybe?, to help generate the XML file?
