100% right. I have made scripts for that but it is not very elegant as it needs to close/reopen the media explorer to works to refresh it.

Is this due to the complexity of the bug? Or the complexity of the use cases?
There are obviously users here who find the feature valuable and while it's not something I would use much, I think it would be very useful in certain situations such as tracks like cymbals, tam-tam, orch fx, etc. where I would never want notes to retrigger.
So, if it is a matter of the use cases being too complex, I think the implementation we discussed in a previous thread would solve all of the use cases.
1) Main default setting (on/off) in either the Project settings or Prefs similar to the current timebase feature.
2) Just as with timebase, each track can use Default/Project setting or be overridden per track.
3) For those that want to do it on items case-by-case they have the ITEM: Prevent MIDI Notes re-triggering action they can use or add to a custom action for splitting.
If it is a matter of the bug itself being too complex to solve right now, that of course is something else.

more media explorer thoughts:
drag and drop import from windows media explorer. i want to be able to quickly open a folder (downloads, soulseek, etc) and just yank selections into the explorer.
the tuning knob needs work, too.
the mousewheel moves the tuning knob in increments of .5 semitones. holding shift decreases the coarseness to .14 semitones -- still FAR to coarse to be usable to tune a sample while demoing it in the media explorer.
imo: holding shift and dragging the tune knob should result .01 semitone shift while dragging mouse.
unmodified dragging of the tune knob should apply +/- .5 semitones to the above fine tuned value
currently, if you shift-drag in a (relatively) fine-tune, and then drag the tuning knob unmodified, your fine-tune is lost and the tuning knob snaps to the nearest value divisible by .5
actual +1 semitone and -1 semitone actions/buttons would be helpful, too

More "custom keywords" slots would be great!!!
A tag system like Soundcloud would be great (lots of tag slots)! Actually, when we want to add a tag, we have to edit the only tag slot avalable! It can be very fastidious when you have to edit lots of tags.
For exemple:
kick544.wav ....tag=kick
snare 1.wav ....tag=snare
Toms1.wav....tag=toms
With Reaper, if I want to add "drums", i have to edit "kick", "toms" and "snare". So, tags will become "kick drums", "toms drums" and "snare drums"
With the Soundcloud System, I have only to add "drums". So, at the end, it will be "snare""drums" or "toms""drums" or "kick""drums".

So that would mean both the note on and not note off parts would be associated with the initial item. From a notation point of view this makes perfect sense. Trying to make midi editing work like audio editing doesn't make the most of midi.

this probably needs its own discussion thread, but i finally broke out my old MPC and took some photos of how it handles this. sorry for the big pictures.
1: here's a "sequence," which is equivalent to a midi item.
2: let's split it at bar 9. look! the noteoff extends beyond the item's conclusion.
3: if we look at the Event List, we can see that the duration (D column) of that last note is 1144 (in ticks).
4: but what if users don't want noteoffs to extend beyond the item bounds? well, there are settings for that.
5: this means that the sequences can be stacked, so that noteoffs from item X can happpen "inside" of item Y

While I like the new list of CC lanes with events, I find it weird that when I create an event on a 14bit lane the list will also be populated with the corresponding MSB and LSB lanes separately. It may be technically correct, but doesn't make sense for editing and clutters the list.
Likewise, it will additionally list the 14bit lane when an event is created in either an MSB or LSB lane. This way around it may make some sense when the MIDI hardware controller doesn't support sending 14bit but the instrument does and I want to edit with more resolution, but I still find it weird and in the usual case it just clutters this list which is meant to be a shortcut.
What I mean is: When I create 8 7bit CCs for a performance, the list will have 16 entries - should I do 8 14bit CCs, it will have 24 entries. I think this goes against the intended purpose of this list.
I also don't quite like that I have to open this sublist to get to it. It's probably just me, but as a person who records most of the CC and then finetunes them by editing, I'd rather have a way to close the part with the first 22 CC numbers and have the "used CC" sublist open instead for quick access. As of now the "lanes with events" submenu will always be quite far away from the mouse pointer. And I am forced to go all the way even if I just wanted a quick glance at which CC are used in this track - which makes it more annoying than useful, IMO.
Illustrating the point:
Currently we have this:
I'd rather have this:
I am with Stickman, this list is easier to travel. I reduced picture size for both images in an attempt to outsmart the attachment manager (failed at that, but it's neater to look at anyway)
Advantage: Used CC are instantly visible with no effort and accessible with much less mouse travel.
Ideally the user could create a list of favorite CC which would be shown in the list outside submenus. I put Velocity, Pitch, Channel pressure and CC74 there for this example, but everybody has their own ideas about this. Bonus points for saveable favorites per track...

On Linux, please make track icons visible as thumbnails in the built-in media explorer. At present it's impossible to see what track icons look like and so makes choosing the right one something of a guessing game. Thank you.

The new CC lane selectors look and work better than previously.
However, since the new controls are not separate child windows any more, the changes also eliminate the only way to quickly find the names and layout of the CC lanes, which was to check the position and text of the child windows of the "midipianoview" window.
This FR therefore becomes even more relevant: ReaScript API: Get MIDI editor on-screen layout via MIDIEditor_GetSetting_Int()

I agree wholeheartedly with gofer's point above. 14-bit CCs should only be listed in "Lanes with events" only if both MSB AND LSB are populated (maybe also if CC event positions on both are equal, so that there's no question about them being 14-bit - because you can have MSB and LSB lane set up completely differently with events not matching in tick position, which is not gonna work as 14-bit). Even then, there should be a separator before them.
Make the default list show 0-22, but as soon as you have, say, 2 CC lanes with events, collapse the first 23 CCs in a submenu. This makes the menu even more compact.

Some really nice cc enhancement here. Really liking the submenu of lanes with events feature but would it be possible to have this appear at the bottom so it's closer to the mouse cursor after opening the menu.
I also wonder would it be possible to just have the used cc events listed at the bottom in a bolder font rather than in a sub menu so they can be easily seen as used cc's & avoiding that extra step of having to go into a sub menu?

Typing numbers works weird in CC menu. It seems to only accept one number. So you cannot really type 05 to select CC5, that doesn't work. We cannot type 21 to pick 21, etc.
Why not remove the leading zero here?

Oh and another typing in bug in the CC menu:
We have an empty MIDI item, let's say we had any CC number selected. We now click the menu, press V - velocity gets selected.
Now, let's add a few notes, and again go back to some CC number selected. If we now click the menu and press V, it won't work at all, velocity won't be selected, because of the dot preceeding it!
Reaper should handle this in a smarter way and not care about the dot.

Maybe, if we are already on the topic, may I propse... I would really like to see a "preview list" additional to the "folder list" in the browser... This preview list would show the content of the selected folder and all nested folders inside of it. (attached video shows this in Bitwig--> best browser of all DAWs). {EDIT: Learned right now one can´t upload videos... so no video... but really, take a look at bitwigs browser when you decide to update the browser in Reaper}
This can help speed up the workflow when browsing through nested folders in sample libraries.
In the past I used some amazing Samples I had stored in the depth of my Sample Libary Folders, with the Reaper Browser I feel very uninvited to dig through my folders... This would really bring the Browser to a new level...

When switching a CC Lane using a hotkey press, the lane changes, but the CC Name stays on the previous CC. It updates only when hovering the mouse cursor on it. Any experienced the same?

Thank you for adding this natively! I'm hoping this is a step towards an articulation system soon for virtual instruments! Especially since a lot have various techniques and such to implement, which can be implemented and combined via the MIDI Editor as well s the notation editor, with both being simultaneous viable options to change articulations!

Yes, a great start to this would be showing PC in notation view. There are a lot of Reaticulate users that would appreciate this.

FWIW, this is not true, at least not according to the MIDI spec:
Quote:
If 128 steps of resolution is sufficient the second byte (LSB) of the data value can be omitted. If both the MSB and LSB are sent initially, a subsequent fine adjustment only requires the sending of the LSB. The MSB does not have to be retransmitted. If a subsequent major adjustment is necessary the MSB must be transmitted again. When an MSB is received, the receiver should set its concept of the LSB to zero.

Thanks for the reply.
-Most samples in my library have a different modified date than created date (since I've batch modified them), and I use them both. It also gives a different sorting option which can be useful when repeatedly browsing the same files for random inspiration.
-The round number of beats fix definitely works.
-I was having issues with files I thought was related to metadata, but there actually wasn't any.
-As for the explorer option, if there aren't maintenance development costs it looks like a lot of users would prefer it remain until the different use cases are covered by the built in one.

About the CC menu. The "show top used CC" element is really not enough. For example, show the last 10 used CC lanes. In practice, this is usually 5-10 automation lanes
All other ССs, including the first 22 items, should also be presented in the submenu.
Then the menu will significantly decrease in size

Yeah that's what Gofer suggested. But this should only really happen when you actually HAVE some lanes with data on them. If you have all lanes empty, the current menu layout is just fine (with first 22 shown outside of submenu).

First 22 is so arbitrary, most of them I‘ll never use. Plus it seems weird that they should suddenly vanish just because one of them is in use. I like Yanick’s „recently used“ idea better, but a favourites list would kick it the most for me personally. Especially if I could load my own, tailored for the instrument on a track.

The "dangling note off" feature request
The dangling note off feature would also improve workflow when joining (gluing or just juxtaposing) MIDI items. Reverting to previous behavior would be as easy as executing an action (custom or builtin) to "Trim all notes to end of item".

+ Media: when matching tempo for preview or import, use any suitable metadata
When i have tempo match on in ME and drag an mp3 song (which has for example 130 BPM in its BPM tag) in Main Window, that song is totally wrong timestretched to Reaper's Host Tempo.
Also, the preview of that Song in ME is at a totally wrong play rate, not synced to Reaper Host Tempo.

Wow.., removing the Windows option in Media Explorer has totally messed up my workflow. ....please either bring it back or add the following.,
Things I miss about Windows Media Explorer:
-----------------------------------------------------------
1) Ability to control font size and color.., REAPER's font size is killing my eyes. If you guys add this, please do so for Actions List and Project Bay as well.
2) Ability to delete files without moving to recycle bin.., by holding SHIFT key and then selecting delete.
3) Ability to right click on any file type and have the "Open wtih" menu.., which allows opening with any associated app(s).
4) Ability to right-click-drag then release and have the "Copy here", "Move here" options. If done inside the same folder it would add " - Copy" to the file name.
5) Ability to set the view to Large or Extra large icons. I have a shortcut to a folder which has images of all plugins, with Windows Explorer option I could view them right inside REAPER, which was really nice.
Media Explorer Requests:
---------------------------------
1)An option that bypasses the Project Play rate and just uses what is set in the Media Explorer., when the option "Play through selected track" is selected .
This is so that when you have a track with a plugin that relies on project play rate, it obeys that rate, while the playing media in explore obeys what it is set to in the explorer.
2) Support for horizontal scrolling when using mice that have this feature.., perhaps with a granularity/amout option.
3) Scrubbing/Jogging
