Default Media Explorer Search Field Bug

Apologies if this has been mentioned already (scanned through and couldn't see it), but whenever I click (or double click) on the media explorer search field in order to focus it and then start typing, the first letter always ends up at the end of the word -




Also - still very much hoping to see relative grid snap working with area selection. Any chance of this happening?

Confirmed. Seems to happen here easiest when search options Update search when enter key is pressed and Clear search when browsing to new folder or database are not selected, but the search field is empty, when browsing to new folder.

This new thing of "last touched track indicator" just makes things even more confusing.


On the one hand, you're right, this is how it works and it can be unhandy.
On the other hand, why in a real workflow select two tracks when pasting? I select one (target) and that's enough.

Quite an instructive story! Thanks!

Envelope Error: (Options: Prevent mouse edits of single envelope points from moving past other envelope points)


I apologize for writing here, but I think this is a serious mistake and I want you (the developers) to notice it faster and fix it.
-----------
When selecting several points, the "Prevent mouse edits of single envelope points from moving past other envelope points" action stops working, it is enabled, but the points still jump to the other side, and it should - if at least one of the selected points stops, then the movement stops.

No, options not only for snapping.

Oh, I missed that, yes, if for all parameters, then a new action is better.

Yes, it is actually not the other hand because then the "last touched track" with its indicator is even more unnecessary.

I would imagine that the first copied track (items from it) goes to the first selected track, the second copied to the second selected track, no matter the distance from the first selected. If we have more copied tracks than the selected ones, the rest of them goes right after the last selected track.

I would also favour the paste target to be based on track selection rather than "last touched"
I think making track selection more visible within the arrange area is a good thing.
If the visibility reflected all selected tracks then it would double as a method of showing where the next time selection EDIT will take place.

I think there isn't something wrong with that. As the title of the action says,prevent edits of "single envelope points", not multiple selected points.
That's why i believe it works only for a single point only.

But it would be nice if we had another option for multiple points.

If there are several selected points, it doesn't work even with a single point.

Default Envelope point

When creating Automation item at the beginning of the project, the first point is destroyed.

Default Humanize MIDI nudges note although not selected and timing 0%

There was no response in the bug reports, so I'm posting here.



Watch how the selected notes jump around, even a moment after the humanize dialogue is opened. This is on Win10/R6.13 and also present in R5.99.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Paint notes on the grid (ctrl+alt)
  2. Move three or four notes ignoring snap (shift)
  3. Select some notes
  4. Open/close “humanize note” (H / ESC) with option “Selected Notes” ticked

Edit: OK, I've found some info here: https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=193337 seems an overlapping notes issue!? Hmm...

Confirmed. I started getting that in dev0723.

I believe this option is doing exactly what it says it does? If you select a single point, its movement is constrained; if you select multiple points, their movement is not constrained.

Thanks for the answer Schwa.
Is it possible to do the same action, but only so that it works for all the selected points? I.e., if one of the selected points stops, then block the movement. To avoid the next one.



Thanks.

Hmm, if this was user tested then ok, but I also did find myself wondering why can those points be moved over another when it had not been the case in a previous session. And I had not changed any settings.

That's certainly a reasonable thing to want, but I don't believe that option exists at present. I don't think this behavior has changed in a long time.

Since it has been like this since the beginning of Reaper afaik I guess it's hard to change now.
Though generally agreed. I also find it rather unintuitive that e.g. changing track volume changes paste target (as shown here).

But if it stays the way it is now, the new last touched track indicator helps imo.

Default Area selection:

I may have missed something, but shouldn't the snapping to the grid be disabled when pressing the shift key?

It's very not intuitive all this. Helps but mehh, I don't even think I'll notice the last touched track ... I will use undo instead.

It works here, but now that you mentioned, i 've noticed some weird behavior.

AS i hold right click+drag and then press the modifier to ignore snap, instead of ingoring snap for one edge that i drag to extend it, it moves the opposite edge or both of them to another position.

Yes, it works, I just didn't assign it to mouse modifier at first.

This is the correct behavior: when you click the modifier, the left side also falls out of the grid and becomes where you clicked.


Edit:

Although it seems to me that this is the wrong behavior: (and more like an error)
If I want to start without binding, I can immediately click the modifier and draw without binding. But if I first started drawing with a snap and then clicked the modifier to disable the snap, then I only want to untie one edge.
