+ Windows: fix topmost pins with certain multimonitor arrangements

Thanks for this. I idly stood by and let it bully me for months thinking it was just a big with having 6 monitors. Glad it's gone!

I don’t know how long it has been. If there is an Fx plugin on the track. When playing, accepting the Track: Toggle track volume envelope visible action, a short jump in volume occurs

Perfect!

Edit: I was thinking if maybe the MCP mouse modifiers could work the same way on the headers too. I instinctively want to alt or shift+click the embeded plugins but realize I can't. Perhaps Alt could just remove the embeded UI.

Forever I imagine

When "Samples" is the primary unit, it doesn't seem to show correct values?

Works fine when they're used as secondary unit.

Great, now liteon VU fit into MCP placeholder (it really is tiny!):

In TCP I notice VU and ReaXcomp does not fill out, and align to center:

Works here with ReaEQ, but not with Justin's ReEQ (has double-click function as well)

and perhaps other JSFX's that I'm not aware of

Also...

When we have a secondary unit set to other than "none", changing the primary unit always resets the secondary unit to "none". Uncool

Respect user's choice of secondary unit, please! Secondary unit should ONLY be set to "none" if you choose that same unit as primary, or user chooses "none" for secondary unit.

That is in order to preserve he behavior of the existing actions

What's wrong with that display?

When resizing a track the embeded UI's resize the exact same way twice before the track gets large enough to fit them on separate rows. I think they should just stay at the widest position instead of resetting like that.

wol · 08-13-2019, 05:13 PM

A bug I noticed in ReaEQ when visible in tcp or mcp: the spectrum analyzer works as always, but if I put it offline and back online the spectrum disappears, then it works only with UI open. If I switch between tcp and mcp it works with UI closed.

A resizing bug with JS like SLAX: in both tcp and mcp the UI is not rescaled even with UI closed, so especially in mcp only the left-top corner is visible.

Yeah that logic is terrible. The automatic laying-out of the UIs needs more work bleh.

Thanks, fixing!

Depending on how the JSFX is written it might need to be updated to work properly in various sizes...

FnA · 08-13-2019, 05:57 PM

I'd like to be able to constrain ReaEQ to a size of about two FX insert slots no matter how much extended mixer is showing. Any larger than that is a waste of real estate to me. ReaComp could probably be turned sideways and take up less room too. ReaXComp not so much maybe, but I think they could be squashed vertically too and still be indicative. Well, the EQ display is the main thing I'm concerned with.

I'd like to see goniometer with a mouse-drag-on-screen "peaks view gain" control that would expand the green stuff when it's only making a tiny tiny blob in the middle. (Geraint Luff calls it "reference" in JS: Panalysis). I use it in tiny floating window (in monitor FX chain).

The number of samples is not correct. Compare, "samples" used as secondary unit:

(Project is set to 48k.)

Same zoom level, only "samples" unit used as primary:

Can we have an action to make the secondary unit stick, then, please?

WTF is that !??? Awesome. Hmmm. Monitoring JSFX/native for tracks......LU, VU, track waveform.... mmmh. A project-wide monitor fx chain for tracks ? High speed native code for stuff like LU+peak-meter, comp GR.

That MCP display was surprising, so I'm just throwing this out there. I know it might fuck up White Tie's design though

If you're embedding FXs everywhere anyway, how about to do this on docker?
