"Jump to Time" Window Weirdness
Differing Pos. vs Neg. Number Behavior

1)Set project start so that bar 1 is a few seconds in (Thus showing negative bars at the start of the project)
2) "Jump to Time"...enter 6
3) Bar 6 is located...as expected.
4) "Jump to Time"...enter -1
5) Bar 5 is located.

Shouldn't bar -1 be located? This is different behavior for pos. vs. neg. numbers.

How would you locate bar -1?

If you enter + or - the jump distance is interpreted as relative. You can't jump to negative bars directly. We think it's more useful to support relative jumps than to support jumping directly to negative bars, since negative bars are unusual.

Thanks! I thought that might be the case. FYI...I do a lot of tv/film sessions. A typical scenario is to have the music start on bar 1, but have a 1 or 2 bar countoff. That means locating to bar 0 or -1. Workaround: I'll just put a marker there, and locate to it.
