Is there a VDJ Script verb to open/collapse the sideview area in the browser?

Weird, i was so sure there was an action for this. I remember having it mapped on my Mixtrack Quad a few years ago, but i can't find anything either, so this is my +1 for this post.
 

It should be
show_splitpanel 'sidelist'
but I can't get it to work.
 

show_splitpanel 'PANELNAME' X%
 

That doesn't work either. I tried 64 bit and 32 bit.
 

show_splitpanel 'sideview'

typo in the script use description, "sideview" not "sidelist"
 

Ah, OK. Either typo or it's been changed at some point. Have you informed the relevant authorities?
 

Nice, is it possible to call another content to the sideview? As example:
show sidelist in sideview
show sampler in sideview
show automix in sideview
show karaoke in sideview
show compatible songs in sideview
 

Just type the word in the button editor and read the description text.
 

TY! When mapped to an encoder or fader this also scales the ratio of zones! perfect for my purpose.
 

@monty look up sideview script
@groovin, I'm sure it's been noticed, If I don't see a change in next few builds, I'll report
 

Ive typed in the word show_splitpanel into the button editor and the descripton said:

show_splitpanel 'sidelist'

But this doesnt work, as mentioned above already. The description is wrong.

Ive also tried with:
show_splitpanel 'Automix'

But no luck. Is there another way to access the other lists?
 

I figured it out, you need two commands:

show_splitpanel 'sideview' & sideview 'sampler'

 

yes the real one:
browser_window automix
"browser_window 'folders'", "browser_window 'songs'", "browser_window 'sideview'", or
"browser_window 'automix'", "browser_window 'sidelist'", "browser_window 'sampler'", "browser_window 'karaoke'"
"browser_window +1", "browser_window -1"
"browser_window +1", "browser_window -1"
sideview 'automix', sideview 'remixes', sideview 'sidelist', sideview 'karaoke' sideview 'clone'
 

I think if you have vertical sidelist enabled that that panel is actually called sidelist, so it's not really wrong in the description, just describing a different panel.
 

Horizontal sidelist - yes, then the script in the description works.

However, that's not enabled in the default browser, and I think most users would not have it enabled.

It would be better to change the example text. If it's causing confusion for experienced users then it needs addressing, IMO.
