Ableton Live - How to make the device slots show permanently

[hellishvictor]

Hi

Does anybody knows if there's a way to make the device slots show permanently?
I have a Live Set without clips and where the I/O section is hided, only are active the Device Slots, mixer and send sections. However, every time the set loads with everything as saved, except for the device slots, which is always OFF.

This is how I save it (and the way that it should show when its loaded)

but here is how it loads:

Maybe that's why the showdeviceslots script isn't supported by Ableton? As it is there's a one click "fix".

After a chat with Filippo from Ableton Support, he confirm me that it is not possible:

I can confirm that saving the set with the plug-in icon on isn't possible. Since this is something that is added via an options.txt, it doesn't save into your preferences.cfg. Unfortunately, when I tried to create a key command (that would function as a quick short cut to toggle the plug-in icon on/off) the key command could not be configured.

Please keep in mind that this feature is only visible when using an options.txt so what you are experiencing is by design; in other words, this can't be "fixed" in an upcoming release.
