Window Control is a self-contained floating window management system for Max/Msp and Max for Live.

• Three different views per device/floating window:

1. Minimal View → Small tile-like placeholder representation of a device (1 track width, 2 scenes height)
2. Performance View → Only the essential controls needed for operation similar to macros of racks
3. Edit View → All controls, mirrored from the device view in Live → similar to controls inside of a rack

• Window moves by clicking background
• Double click on background switches between Minimal and Performance view
• Proportions are all multiples of minimal view (aspect 4:3)
• Full mapping capabilities for all essential functions in the device view in Live
• Grouping of several floating windows to one (or multiple) cluster(s)
• Group operations with modifier keys (alt/option)
• Moving the group clusters together
• Unfolding Edit mode takes relative position into account → open to left/right side accordingly
• Device selection from minimal view (find the device in Live)
• (Multi-)touch capable (limited due to Max constraints but is possible)
• Easily adaptable for new devices (by using a template)
• Modularity allows for easy updates on specific parts of the whole system
• No OS specific title bar
• No scrollbars
• mappable minimize function
• Live colors & custom color editor
