-Continuous controls send a value from a range of MIDI values from MIN to MAX, as set in the control's MIDI Properties panel or in the NAMED TICKS values.  The NAMED TICKS option can provide non-continuous, arbitrary order, and repeated MIDI values, as desired.  Compare to discrete controls (button only), which can send only one (on only) or two (on/off) different values.+Continuous (or variable) controls send a value from a range of MIDI values from MIN to MAX, as set in the control's MIDI Properties panel or in the NAMED TICKS values.  The NAMED TICKS option can provide non-continuous, arbitrary order, and repeated MIDI values, as desired.  Compare to discrete controls (button only), which can send only one (on only) or two (on/off) different values.

 +===== Page Sizes =====
 +
 +In the beginning, there was a single iPad page size, and all layouts were the same size.
 +
 +We now have a wide variety of page sizes, and a layout's aspect ratio may not match the current device.  In this case, you have two icons at the bottom right of the display.
 +
 +{{:manual:pan-zoom.png?nolink&400|}}
 +
 +- magnifying glass - zooms in to full width, or out to show full layout\\ 
 +- hand - when highlighted and zoomed-in, repositions layout view\\ 
 +
 +There is capability to disable these icons when the aspect ratio does not match.
 +
 +These icons not shown on a Mac.  The layout is always shown full width.  Use your trackpad or mouse to zoom layout view.
 +
 +New layouts will start in a device's native capability.  Mac layouts will be a maximum size.  For more universal compatibility you can start with a smaller device layout size.  This is not currently a menu option - see Q&A forum where some smaller blank layouts are posted.
 +
 +You can resize an existing layout to a devices native size - //More / Config / Change Layout Size//.  Choosing //TALL// (i.e., portrait) with a layout designed in //WIDE// (landscape) can have adverse impact on control positioning.
