Individual Page Lockout Pin
It would be nice to have the ability to lock out individual pages or group of Pages with a separate passcode.
Reason: We have volunteers run some of our Productions, and we do not want the getting into some of the more advanced buttons we have added for additional Controls, like remote controlling the switcher from a Front of House Consul when a video director is in the control room.
The current work-a-round is was to remove the page buttons on the stream deck and create a Home Screen(s) with direct links to the pages that we don't need to restrict. With a "Home" button then put on every Page. We then have some "Secret/Hidden" buttons that take us to the advanced pages. These buttons require a long press, but still can be found.
@Julusian Any time frame for this? Would be very useful.. I appreciate 2.2.1 only just came out.
This would be an amazing internal button feature. Add a lock button and you can set a pin code on that button. When you press the lock button it takes you to a page with a typical 0-9 button set where you can enter your pin number. It will then take you back to whatever page you set as your return from lock page.
We are in a similar boat where having the ability to really and simply lock out some of our units would come in handy.
It will then take you back to whatever page you set as your return from lock page.
I think it would be more useful to return to a specific page dependent on the entered pin. E.g. 1234 -> last page, 1111 -> page 1, 1357 -> page 42, 0815 -> invalid pin stays locked
Actually this can be done with ease right now. You can restrict access to individual pages by removing or changing the navigation buttons. Then you can't access the page in the usual way. Now you can create your own way to access the target page with an intermediate password entry page.
- go to password page, 2. if password is entered correctly go to target page, if password is entered incorrect go back to previous page.
Going back to previous page in history is supported in the internal go to page actions. A password entry can easily be done with the generic dataentry module. With this module you can also route to a page according to entered pin. Timed lockouts can be done with triggers.
