Re: Invisible playlist menu in edit window

Re: Invisible playlist menu in edit window
Hi Slau, Thanks a lot for looking into this, I use PT10 with SL and the instructions you gave fixed the issue! :) I opened the session, selected the track, interacted with the track in the edit window, pressed control up arrow several times, closed the edit window with command W and opened the window again. Didn't need to reopen the session this time at least.

Whatever the case, occasionally, closing the Edit window and reopening it resets the way VoiceOver sees the playlist selector when changing from mini view to medium to jumbo, etc. Long story short, in anything below medium, the playlist selector, whether it's seen or not, is not active and if you change track heights to make it reappear, you might have to reopen the session to have it reappear and be active. The point is, the sure-fire way to get the playlist selector back and active is to use the Control-up arrow command on selected tracks, save and reopen the session.

Hi Chuck, Thanks for the suggestion, I suppose you mean I should control-command-click the playlist menu, but since it is not there at all, I'm not sure what I can do to make it show up again.

Hi Slau, Thanks for the suggestion, as you predicted the playlist selector shows up when I create a new track. I'm sure you're right about the settings, and I wish there was a way to set this track back to a condition where the playlist selector would appear. I also tried control-option-command-down arrow with no result, with VO off since this command collides with the volume shortcut for VO.

Re: strange behavior and a question
Stefan, in Pro Tools you have kind of two click options; the click track and the metronome click. If you have no click track created, you will still hear the metronome click if you have Click enabled under the Options menu, and have set a output for the click in the click options dialog under the Setup menu. I've just tested this myself, and if I delete or mute a click track, I'll still hear the click set in that dialog when Click under Options is checked. Try to turn off Click in the Option menu, and you'll probably not hear the click sound anymore.

Are you sure it's not in the track list? You do realize that, if there's only item in the list, it will appear as though nothing is there when you interact with the table.

Re: midi quantize
Hi, While we're on the subject of MIDI quantizing; has anyone seen that launching the Quantize window is somewhat a hit and miss, since it sometimes appear, and sometimes only show you the Event Operation header? In my case, I sometimes have to press option-zero several times before the Quantize window contains more than the heading. I've also seen this for the main Event Operation window. Not sure why this is happening, though. On the other hand, I only get this header in the Input Quantize, which I expect to be the current state of that window. HOwever, I hope to find a work around for turning Input Quantize on/off, or simply save a template with this setting on for those projects where I want it set to on all the time. Not a perfect solution, but I think it will work, since such settings probably are bound to the project.

Re: first thoughts.
Thanks for the info, Slau. Scott, I can think of a number of reasons why this suggestion won't work, but what happens if you label them with the label feature in VO? Track 1, record enabled - Track 2 record enabled etc. Would each track always get the correct button label when you create a new project and add new tracks? Just a somewhat extreme thought. Labeling newly labeled buttons seems like overkill, I was just wondering if it might be a work around for your question.
