Save live output to disk (bounce)

[planktone]

Hello all,

it would be great to have a clear visual signal that "save live output to disk" is active.
(e.g. a recording counter running somewhere)
also when stopping, the question: "are you sure" could be an extra safety measure.

thx,

w.

You can create a button on toolbar for the "File: Save live output to disk (bounce)" or "File: Save live output to disk (bounce), using the most recent bounce settings" action.

It will be lit when the "Save live output to disk (bounce)" is in progress, active

It could be also doable but using scripts.
There is some script showing time to spend on a project etc.

So writing a script that just display time since starting the script (= stopwatch). You would then make a custom action containing both Save live to disk action followed by triggering the stopwatch script. So bouncing would start, button wil be lit and "live bounce stopwatch" will appear to show elapsed time...

EDIT: Some forum topic to start off:

Do you have transport hidden ?
I see this when I use it

Well, will you look at that. I had no idea that existed, mainly because I use that feature very infrequently.

Thanks for the headsup souk21.
