Companion 5.1 marks image-buffer feedbacks as deprecated, and its layered
buttons have a Gauge element that follows a number directly. So:
- New numeric value feedbacks for gauges: fader/level position 0-100 for
inputs, busses, matrix outputs, control groups, aux sends and matrix
sends (one shared fader taper: 0 dB at 75 %, -inf at 0), raw pan 0..1
for a symmetric gauge, GEQ band dB, and input meter position.
- Every knob and meter preset is now a layered preset: background box,
channel name, live dB text and a Gauge bound to $(local:pos); on/off and
mute tint the background. Meters use a vertical green/amber/red gauge.
Text uses size 100 with shrink-to-fit (14 rendered tiny on 5.1) and the
level gauge is white so it stays visible on a green background.
- The old image-bar feedbacks keep working and are labelled "(legacy
image)"; HELP.md explains how to add a gauge to your own button.
- A sleeping iPad no longer logs a relay send error every few seconds:
one warning per iPad per 10 minutes.
Checked on the booth Companion 5.1: the layered knob previews show live
names, levels and gauge fills. npm test: 392 checks pass.
