Default This is really bad behaviour on envelopes, or i am missing something? (FIXED)

I want to select automation points and move them all at once, and when i try to this in one way this happens:

1) Multiple Segments are selected but just one is changing




2) in another way, The shape is altered if i drag the points to try to achieve the same




Am i missing something? :/

i can't reproduce that right now, but it looks very familiar to behavior i've experienced in the past. what are your snap settings, deeb?

edit: check this out, once i move over the halfway point to the next snappable grid line, i get that diagonal envelope curve. it looks to me like your grid is set to snap at a much smaller interval than mine, and that you have a much smaller vertical hit area over which to move your dragged envelope points?

This is a bug, that is triggered when vertically moving multiple sets of selected envelope points with no transition time to unselected points. Fixing for the next build, thanks for the report.

mccrabney. Thank you! now i see i had grid lines disabled. So it's all about Reaper odd behaviour of changing everything randomly (in user perspective).

This is terrible, i could bet this behaviour has no use for anyone, unless they want random envelopes:



I wonder:
1) What is the benefit of this automation movements? they are totally random, in a place which by it's nature is already very detailed and deep and tiring, and reaper makes them even more by making all this strange things :/
Could we have it simple? i mean - normal?

2) why Multiple Segments which are selected don't change together !
It's frustrating.

nice - thanks, schwa.

agreed here, i think that "move envelope segment / (&+ ignoring time selection)" should move all selected envelope points when multiple points are already selected.

for comparison, it's similar to selecting several audio items and pulling down 1 volume handle -- it's expected for this action to have results on all selected items.

^^ yes thank you schwa.

as far i am experienced this could be the default, and still it doesn't exist in reaper? i know reaper is a complex ecosystem and i don't know how you can deal with so many details .. Big big respect .. but maybe this is missing?
