Create and delete assignments and mappings

Create and delete assignments and mappings

The Assignments & Mappings tab includes an Assign & Map button so you can quickly create new assignments and mappings. You can also create assignments and mappings independent of any screen control, allowing you to use a hardware control to adjust the value of a parameter or action for which there is no screen control in the workspace.

You can also delete assignments and mappings in the Assignments & Mappings table. When you select a row in the table with both an assignment and a mapping, only the mapping is deleted. When you select a row containing only an assignment, an alert appears. If the assignment has a screen control, the assignment is deleted but the screen control remains in the table. If the assignment has no screen control, the entire row is deleted.
