p.s. you can also uncheck "Ignoring snap" Some people find it useful

This should work just like Daodan said (at least I hope it does for you too).

What in fact does not work when it comes to fades is adjusting fade curve shape on multiple selected items via mouse modifier. It only does for 1 item and is super frustrating (at least for me).

Uau! really deep inside Reaper inner world! Thank you so much both!

I have a question: in the next use case: I drop a kick , adjusted loop section and drag 3 beats, then i try to fade the "items" but just one fade appears. Is it possible to make it so that 3 fades will happen according to the adjusted section and loop status?

I don’t think it is possible but I don’t really know to be honest. It is for stuff like this that I never botheted to work with loop activated but rather do copy paste, variate, copy paste variation etc and if neccessary manually replace previous items.

With all the unpredictable cutting, stuttering, editing and mangling of item copies I do it would get really annoying to work with loops :P

i totally understand you. It doesn't mean it would be super useful.
I mean: if we want somthing different we can always use not looped but this fades things hmmm kills any chance, because fading is really necessary for working like this - pity!

Thank you!

Yes if fades worked I could probably sometimes also find use for the loop functionality. But currently it feels just too inflexible (easier just selecting multiple items and relative edge editing them IMO… if THIS shit didn’t happen: https://forums.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=251179 ).

Yes. I never noticed that because I usually set shape from context menu and it's works fine. Also ctrl+left click to set next shape is ok. But something wrong with "adjust fade curve" action. It seems like a bug actually because there is no difference between "just adjust" and "ignore selection/grouping"

No, absolutely impossible at the moment. It's better to just duplicate one shots if you put them in arrange. Now it's easy with razor.

Yeah I know this works but I like to have a more nuanced control of fade shape and also I like to have as little popups with options as possible and as much mouse-modifiers as possible in my workflow. Helps the brain focus on creativity and the fingers doing the technical work.

Will probably create a bug report linking to my FR.
