MarkeG Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Got a Helix rack today wondering if it's just the rack version of Helix edit or they recently changed the style and thickness of the sliders controls to a thinner look ? Pretty much every video or picture I've seen of Exit app shows a thicker easier to on the eyes version Are there any settings to change it ?

It has, for all intents and purposes, been discontinued. HX Edit, the one on the right, is the current editor that will continue be updated...

On effects or amps with many options they would force you to scroll through multiple pages. This puts all the controls visible on a single page.

I was glad for the thinner sliders, but the initial version of them was too thin. It was too hard to use the mouse cursor on them. Line 6 did thicken them slightly since. The problem with the historically thickest sliders, besides taking too much screen real estate, was the text was sometimes unreadable, specifically for the delays. The white text became engulfed in the bright green. The newer, streamlined sliders don't have that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, a welcome change as far as I was concerned allowing for a comprehensive single page view of all options. Btw, I meant to say "You might find you don't want those "thicker" sliders back (rather than "thinner"). Corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicLaw Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Yup. This is the third version of the sliders in the Editor software. Not too fat; not too thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkeG Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 For me my eyes aren't that great wearing glasses and getting older makes me wish the sliders were a little thicker Some built in customization with options for different views and or themes would me a welcome addition is all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastodonrules Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 They should give us more options on the view style. I loved the digitech nexus librarian set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
