Midi editor's Options -> CC/velocity lane -> show note length in velocity lane.

Default Problem drawing CCs

As you can see I can't add more CC events starting right on the line. We need to be able to do that.

By default, shift+click, but you can change that in the mouse modifiers for MIDI CC Segment.

That's something that irks me, too. Schwa recommends shift+click, but that will only add a single point, whereas Tod wants to draw a curve. A solution would be a "Draw CC events" modifier in the "CC segment" section of mouse modifiers.

In the fine future when curved CC segments get re-added, this will not be that important anymore.

Some issue with global hotkeys.

When I add a plugin (AFAICS, it doesn't matter which one) and the GUI opens, Reaper loses focus and the plugin gains focus instead. Global hotkeys are then not sent to the main application anymore.
Clicking in the plugin GUI, however, solves this.

Thanks schwa, that's what I thought, but non of the modifiers work. By default shift+click is assigned "Insert envelope point", and it does that, but it doesn't continue drawing.

I also tried "Freehand draw envelope" for the shift+click, but that didn't help either.

I think all will agree we need to be able to start right on the line and freely draw in the points.

Hi Stevie, I think that's always been the case, at least it has for me. I've always had to click on the main to get thinks like the "space bar" to work when I had something like Kontakt in focus.

Something I ran into the other day that I hadn't seen before was that shortcut keys stopped working with toolbars in focus. That was not a current dev version though.

Thanks for confirming! Yes, I also think it's always been the case. But I'm pretty sure it can be easily fixed.

I would prefer an optout-option, so I can choose, whether plugins shall be included in the global-shortcut-behavior as well or not.
Plugins may be controllable via computer-keyboard and global shortcuts would prevent that, if "hardwired" that way.
But if I can choose it myself, this wouldn't be a problem for me anymore.

Yes, I agree with mespotine.
I have no idea how Cubase solves this. But apparently it does it in such a clever way, that I never ran into problems with shortcuts.
Plugins could still use the keyboard, but the transport shortcuts would
still pass thru.

The transport Yes, I think the "space bar" is the main one.

I don't think this would be an FR, it has to do with the value box above the keyboard.

When hoovering over a point or a following envelope line, the value should show correctly in the values box at anytime the cursor indicates it's on the point or on the line.

Actually, the space bar is the only key that always works! Even with the example shown above in the screenshot.
I wish we could have the other keys at the same level

Two more things I'd like to see fixed.

1. Alt+click should delete a point.

2. When adding a point, the point value should remain the same as the current value when any part of the mouse cursor is hoovering over the line.

That's my thinking because it feels clumsy the way it is.

Maybe it's different for different plugins, my main experience is with Kontakt. I'm always forgetting about it and just automatically hit play.

The worst part is it will sometimes crash or go into the grey state. I've got my backup timed for every 10 minutes because of that.

Ah yeah, Kontakt does that sometimes for ya... Although, I must say, I've never seen this in Cubase.

But that's just because defaults are often weird compared to other DAWs

Eh, you probably misunderstood him. He means the default options are odd for real user.

Yes and yes, but some of those preferences are related to performance. How should one do it in other way?

I'm speaking more of obscure settings that people tweak just because they feel like it...

Ok, I was wrong about garbage, I'm sorry. I've written about this in the newest build's thread. There are plenty of windows positions variables in reaper.ini file. That's why a customized one is so bigger than the default one.
