Wish Fast preset scroll/picking in home page

Legend!
I'm seeing threads talking about scrolling speed between presets on the home page and wishes that it could jump by intervals.

This is an existing wish:

And the latest two threads talking about it:

https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/fm3-rookie-question-139…-preset-scrolling-from-the-unit.181150/
https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/value-knob-slow-scroll-speed-on-home-page.181748/

Perhaps a home screen improvement would be that we could hold in one of the buttons when turning the scroll wheel and have the display temporarily switch to the Presets page until the button was released. That'd avoid the need to move two pages to the right to the preset browser, and could possibly allow removing that screen entirely.

There are also wishes to have the scroll wheel push act as the Enter button as a default, which would play well with this.

That sounds overly complicated to me. It's faster to page twice and then scroll for the preset you want.

I like a fast scroll option (without loading) and pressing value knob or Enter to select, press Exit to return to current preset.
Can leave the left/right nav keys to go one by one as is currently.

Also: move the Presets tab to the left of Home. Then from Home, page left once and scroll (value wheel or nav as currently). Press value knob press to select.

Yeah I think rearranging the home view to be left/right with Scenes screen at center would make it faster to access different pages as you are at most a couple of clicks away from important ones and pressing home again always brings you back to the middle. I think I've even outlined this in some other feature request thread.
 
Argh....sorry I made a duplicate! Maybe a mod can delete.


Here are my 2 cents

When on the Home tab the value knob and nav L/R buttons both move one preset at a time.
If possible could the nav buttons be made to jump ahead/behind in steps of 10?


Also to go to the Presets tab would it be possible to loop the tabs, so L page would go to presets (and further lefts would go to performance and back to home)

Right now its is 3 right Nav presses , scroll the value wheel to the preset , enter, home

Performance is great to be able to access with one R click but Presets would be valuable as well to easy access.

It would be brilliant if you could L nav, pick preset and say push the value knob and it would go right to that preset with the scenes etc.
I'd love the value wheel to be able to jog like in the past again but the above would help bigtime.
 
Alternatively just have the Up/Down Nav buttons jump in steps of 10. Currently Up/Down move between scenes but that functionality is shared with knob A.
