Configurable Cue Behaviour

Configurable Cue Behaviour

Summary and Rationale

Add support for two switchable cue behaviours. Many users are familiar with a particular cue behaviour, and it would make it easier for users to transition to Mixxx if they configure the cue button to work they way they expect it.

Use Cases

• DJ Bill is considering switching from CDJs to software. He

Design

CDJ Mode When stopped, pressing CUE sets the cue point. When playing, pressing CUE jumps to the cue point and stops there. Holding down CUE plays from the cue point for as long as it's held, then when released it jumps straight back to cue point and stops there.

Simple Mode ??? (Should this be what we already have coded in Mixxx?) ~~~~

Each mode will be selectable via the Preferences dialog (which pane? ~~~~). The dialog should explain what each behaviour does (as in the explanation above), so users don't have to dig through documentation.

The default mode will be CDJ.
