How do you add envelopes to items I can't work it out.

Maybe it's just me being a little clumsy but I find the "threshold" (have forgotten the correct term) that an AI gets moved to another lane quite low currently.



While working a bit with AI's it happened already a few times that I accidently moved them to another lane while only intending to move horizontally (especially on longer moves).

Could this "threshold" be increased a little or alternatively could a "Automation item left drag" mouse modifier: "Move horizontally" be added ?

Can we get a double click envelope lane modifier please ?

Click in the empty space and not having to hit the segment every time to add a point is so much quicker way of working, however, if i change the single click envelope lane to insert a point i lose the ability to unselect points using said single click (Real pain) and it doesn't match the double click insert on segment and double click delete point.

So adding the double click modifier in the envelope lane will give us a really slick set up.

Also when the theming starts for automation items, can we have the ability to change the height of the bottom bar, and the font used on it too, whatever the current font is it is way too huge on mine, the text is cut off top and bottom, and that grab area would be nice to be a bit bigger for my geriatric mad cow hands.

Cheers

Also
I am interested to know why track items and automation items can be selected separately ?
Is this for some particular technique or such, personally i would rather have automation items being selected the same as any other item, that way the normal "S" shortcut for split would work on automation items too, then you could select an item and an automation item and click S to split both.

EDIT*
Automation items dont work with envelope actions either right ?



EDIT2*
Still needs a reverse points action too when automation items work with actions

AI length changes when i change timebase.

Another one for when the envelope AI theming features get implemented, can we have a "Envelopes use track color" tickbox in prefs please.
Cheers

Not sure if this is by design, but the value display in the envcp is not updated while automation plays through the timeline.

That's always been the case... faders and env cp values change only when the automation is in read mode.

They do, though some actions may not be implemented yet. The action should apply to the last clicked automation item, or the underlying envelope if there is no last clicked automation item. When run from the context menu, the action will apply to whatever was clicked on.

As can be seen above in the gif the reduce points doesn't work, I haven't actually found an action that worked yet, though i haven't been through that many.

There is an option to disable AI pooled when we copy/past item with "envelope points move with media item" ?
Actualy all AI which have followed media copy are pooled.

There is a display bug in the screencap -- the points aren't recalculated to the new automation item length after changing the timebase -- but the underlying behavior is difficult/tricky. Below is the behavior after fixing the display bug, with a tempo change in the middle of the automation item to demonstrate what's difficult about it.

The exact state of an automation item that spans a tempo change can't be preserved when switching to timebase time; something has to give. (Side note, this is exactly the same logical problem that would exist if REAPER allowed MIDI items to have timebase time.) The only way to handle this other than the existing behavior would be to not allow automation items to have timebase time, like MIDI, regardless of the project or track setting. I'm inclined to just keep the existing behavior.

No there isnt, there is double click segment and double click point
Envelope lane only has left click and left drag
That is on OSX anyway.

Envelope lane context has "left drag" and "double click" contexts over here (W10)...

Are you sure you are running pre5? Envelope lane context has only left drag and double-click.

I have left drag and double-click in pre-5 on macOS here.

So I'm not sure what gpunk_w is seeing.

None of the "Write current values for actively writing envelopes..." (id: 42013 to 42015, 41160 to 41162) work on AIs.

An example with a time selection:

Pre-reqs: in latch preview mode, on a volume envelope, with a volume fader change made).

I'm showing that the action does nothing inside the AI, and does act outside it.



I don't know what the behaviour should be when the time selection crosses an AI boundary, but the correct behaviour when the time selection is inside the AI seems obvious.

---

Also, maybe it's necessary to have actions like:

"Write current values for active Automation Item..."
  • From Automation Item start to cursor
  • From Cursor to Automation Item end
  • From Cursor to last touch inside Automation item
  • To entire Automation Item

I've seen this several times, too, but am having trouble reproducing it consistently, "reduce points" works most of the time, but sometimes calling the action completely crashes Reaper. I'll post again when I'm home this evening and can narrow it down.

No need ... should be fixed for the next build, thanks for the report Embass and run_esc.

Bug: when using the action to duplicate unpooled, instead of one undo to remove the newly duplicated item, you need to undo twice. First undo goes back to pooled, second undo removes the item.

Not what should be happening!

Yes, uncheck Preferences->Editing Behavior->Automation->Automation items->Pool source data when pasting automation items.

This seems counter intuitive, you can only reduce the number of points on an automation item, you can not select points within the automation item and reduce points (Im assuming the same with any action, not tested)
Being able to select points within the automation item and reduce them would be better.
If you have busy automation within an item and only want to reduce the points at the end of the item, as in this GIF, it cant be done ?

Thanks. But, already done...

A new bug ?

When I past an item, the past AI are pooled, or "Pool source data when pasting automation items" is unchecked.

That's not pasting, that's duplicating via mouse drag, hence you need to adjust mouse modifiers. Use Ctrl+V for paste and you get it unpooled.
