Hello,
I have a midi button mapped to work like this: deck 1 effect_active while_pressed "Beat Gird"
and if I change the effect inside the skin (Example: distortion)

It will enable the distortion effect instead of Beat Grid. It's completely ignoring the part of the script where I chose my effect to play on that midi map.
BTW I'm using the Mac version.

ROFL!
Just goes to show though, that's there's no check happening anywhere.
Ideally there would be a message along the lines of "Effect Beat Gird not found", so at least you'd have some clue as to why it wasn't working.

I suggested, like spell check, stuff not understood should get underlined, on short stuff it's easy to spot a mistake, but with long scripts it's a nightmare if you miss a space or use a ; instead of a :

Yes, there's a basic check for filter strings (when making a filter folder), but it needs to be in place elsewhere too.
The more complex VDJ gets (custom buttons, action POIs...) the more need there is for this process to be made easier for the end user.

.. and the more it checks for errors etc, the heavier it will become ?????? Just a though ;)

I like people sharing thoughts, so thanks djdad but.....
Why does it have to be heavier? (How often do you write scripts/edit POI etc in a performance setting?) it could faux perform the script and underline where it stops/fails.
Option-ize it (button in the mapping section, check script) and then it is only used when there's a problem.
"Let the machine do the technical stuff" isn't that an Atomix mission statement?
If making it heavier was such a concern why can't my Craptop display 4 deck HD waves? (sarcasm)
