PitchControl 1.2.1

[hlavamir]

Fixed

• First start: with no saved macro values (a new checkout or install; the saved state is not in
  the repo) all faders started at 0, so the lights stayed dark. The macros now start with the values
  of scene 1.

Changed

• Windows build script: the window stays open at the end, the output of every step goes to
  build-windows.log (the window shows the step names and, on a failure, the end of the log), and
  missing or too old Node.js (the UI build needs 20.19+ or 22.12+) and missing Python 3.11 / 3.12 are
  reported up front. The UI packages are reinstalled when the Node version changed (npm skips the
  build tool's platform binary under an old Node), and the Python environment is made with 3.12 or
  3.11 even when a newer Python is installed. On CI nothing changes (no pause, output on the console).
• Fog page: the long label "Every … for … seconds" was cut off. The timer is one row now
  (switch, every _ s for _ s); universe and channel, and on / off value, have their captions next to
  the fields; the name field fills the row.
• Universe dropdowns: every DMX universe field (Rig, Outputs, Fog) is a dropdown of the universes
  0–3, like the Control Desk's. A value outside that range in an older file is kept and shown as
  "not offered". The Art-Net universe on the wire is a dropdown of 0–15.

Install: download the zip for your system and unpack it. The app is not signed:

• macOS (Apple Silicon): open PitchControl once; when macOS refuses, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway".
• Windows: SmartScreen → More info → Run anyway.

On first start the app creates its configuration folder in Documents/PitchControl.
