Undo/Redo, Delete, Search, Filter and Reorder for MIDI Bindings, Actions, OSC and Plugin Presets
in progress
ultracello
Description:
Improve control settings and preset management by adding undo/redo, search, filter, and advanced sorting options for MIDI bindings, actions, OSC directions, and plugin presets.
Problem:
Currently, managing large sets of mappings and actions is tedious and prone to error. Deleting entries in bulk is not possible. Labels can remain even after deletion due to bugs. There's also no way to recover deleted entries or track changes without undo/redo functionality.
Proposed Solution:
– Add Undo/Redo buttons scoped per section (e.g., MIDI bindings, actions, OSC, plugin presets)
– Make list entries deletable via swipe (e.g., after accidental import)
– Fix bug where labels don’t disappear after full deletion
– Add search with auto-focus
– Enable filtering
– Support drag & drop sorting by:
• Global profiles
• Project settings
• MIDI bindings
• Actions
• OSC directions
• Plugin presets
• Control Settings categories
– All list items should support:
• Reorder
• Move between categories
• Copy to category
• Delete
• Copy/paste
• Move to another profile
• Move up/down
• One-click top/bottom move
Benefits:
✅ Massively improved efficiency when editing bindings or presets
✅ Prevents accidental loss of work
✅ Much better clarity and control over large setups
✅ Brings consistency to all control-setting areas
✅ Saves time by avoiding full rebuilds of profiles

YES..... the UI is rather inconsistent with a list of things or a collection of things..... just a few "list" examples: list of plugins when you add one, list of MIDI bindings in the control profile, list of actions items in the widgets.
Certainly each list needs more attention, and each has some unique characteristics for sure. They all need improved - as many of these comments show. Go Loopy Go Pro.

Also items of list widgets (stepped dials & radio buttons) should be able to be reordered via drag and drop. Currently the actions within them can be reordered and dragged from one item to another, but the actual steps of a dial or buttons of a radio grid can’t be reordered. This makes it very time consuming if you need to add a step or button if it belongs anywhere other than at the end

100%. All entries should be able to be dragged and re-sorted.

Michael Tyson: It is not fully complete. For MIDI bindings (and also for AUv3 plugin presets) it is not available.

Please add a search function for already added midi bindings in profiles.

Michael Tyson: How cool is that, thanks!

Addition for the upcoming
Keyboard Commands / Shortcuts
feature, both for macOS and iPad/iOS Loopy Pro version:- please go immediately to the search field text line with blinking cursor. For an ultra-fast workflow for us keyboard types who don't always want to manually click the search box text line. Thanks a lot for this!

I use my bluetooth CME Xkey Air as a MIDI binding device and it’s perfect for that purpose. I only wish we could sort them chromatically after finishing the profile for a nice overview.

Would be nice to be able to drag midi bindings to reorder them in Control Settings

MIDI Binding Copy/Paste/Import

It would be very helpful to be able to do the following with MIDI Bindings:
- copy/move bindings to an existing profile
- import bindings from a profile
