Yes, agreed. It's awesome, and would be even more awesome if muted track arrange backgrounds were finally dealt with.
Nevertheless, the themeability of selected track arrange background is totally AWESOME!

MX Bug
The MX in docked mode and in list view AND after its closing does show up anything. Please confirm:
It is also very inconvenient that the MX points to <Track Templates> by default. How to remove this shortcut at all?
To be honest, the tree view is useless to me. Please make the option to return to the classic shortcuts view, thank you.

Thanks! That's a really nice addition. I don't use a vertically divided arrange view personally, but I'm sure a sensible solution can be found for that.

This bracket is a great solution! Deservedly the fallback/default. Copying and pasting is much more intuitive now.

Confirmed. You can also have the Media Explorer floating and in List view, everything visible. But if you then dock the Media Explorer, selected directory goes to Track templates and nothing is showing.

Totally +1 here, too.
That’s the behavior I would expect.

Yep, only the docker mode leads to these issues.

Could you please fix it so it works as normal AS with envelopes? It should move the previous selected part as well between the envelope points, so it should leave an empty space with edge points.

Unless I'm misunderstanding your report, area selection behaves the same way that moving media items has always worked. This isn't a bug.

I am confused by the paste behavior. It seems, the paste action as well as "insert new item" will paste at the last touched track, but Media Explorer's "Insert into project" will paste at the selected track (or create a new track if none is selected). I normally drag/drop or paint items, so I never noticed this before.
Why the different behavior? The shiny new selection indicator does not always indicate where stuff will be going when inserting from the media explorer, eg if I touch a volume slider of an unselected track or click into an empty tcp/mcp area.
Personally, I find the behavior of media explorer's insert action more to my liking, as I don't understand why touching an unrelated fader should change where stuff gets inserted. I think the paste/insert action's behavior should be changed and the cursor indicator should be shown on "last selected", not "last touched".
EDIT: actually “last selected” isn’t proper either, because that wouldn’t indicate the “new track is going to be created” situation. The selected cursor thingy could then be shown above empty arrange area - or not at all.

Yes, it's moving the points, not the shape, so it's actually correct and I believe the most useful behavior.

Do you mean the muted track overlay, which currently makes the track and items darker? If so, +1.

I'd love to see both of these things, with a colour and blending mode for muted track arrange area also.
Thanks!

But copying makes the same result, so if moving the shape and points could be possible maybe would be more useful, since it would add an additional functionality?

This is an interesting dilemma which should of course be properly user-tested.
It does work the same as copying only if you perform it over a straight line with no envelope points inside AS.

Is anyone else finding that the play cursor is not very smooth as soon as you have automation (or automation items_ showing?
I find as soon as one automation lane is showing, reaper's play line is getting stuck a lot and skipping when playing back but is smooth when automation is hidden.
Anyone else?

I have to agree with this. It's so very very dark, way too dark. At least ease up on the darkness.

I appreciate the high amount of customization that this allows, but I wish there were an option for this that was a little more accessible for the average person. For those of us who don't feel like messing around in photoshop, would you consider adding a selected track cursor setting in the theme tweaker window so we can change the color without having to leave Reaper?

Other DAWs leave envelope constant at the value from the AS start position.

Sorry for the missleading title and late reply, just came back from my sis wedding
Yes this is not a bug, maybe i'm wrong..Even though i think it would be nice if we had an extra option for this behavior when we're moving a part between points.

Sorry probably a stupid question but, how do you manage to have the FX slots (I guess) on your track directly ? Also How did you make this selection box on your automation ?
Thanks

You can enable it in the "Options" menu.

These discussions are for test releases, if you are not running a test version of Reaper, you wont have those options yet.

With the Media Explorer getting attention, would be nice to have an action for:
Media Explorer: Remove Duplicate Files From Database
It's easy to accidentally get the same files in there twice and an option to remove the duplicates would make managing the databases much easier. Should just look to see if Path+FileName are the same and listed more than once, then remove the second+ instances. If just the same file name are the same but different paths, it should do nothing.

How are you adding files? If you drag a file into a database that is already in the database, nothing should happen.

Was just dragging them in.
My process was:
1. Open Media Explorer
2. Create database Example: "Percussion DB"
3. In Media Explorer click My Computer
4. Follow path to samples folder (Example: E:\Guru\Hits\Percussion)
5. Drag folder into database (maybe I did this more than once?)
Result: somehow ended up with duplicates as shown...
...hence the desire to have a way to clean this up. But if it's a bug, then different solution.

Also, found what I think is a Media Explorer bug. I previously had "Show Leading Paths in Database and Searches" On. I disabled this option. I re-enabled the option. It's no longer working as seen here:
The leading path is just not appearing any longer. I was trying to turn it on to show that the duplicate samples were in the same location.

My Media Explorer somehow lost all the submenu buttons. In this picture, all of the are lists and have subfolders.

Could this be somehow solved? The last touched track in reality in the gif is always the other track. Maybe if the release of the mouse was being monitored instead of the initial click.

+1, I proposed this as well on first page for track tinting. At least when we move an item to another track. If we click on empty track space, then it should change on initial click.

Last touched track is not changed when:
- send is adjusted or bypassed
- fx parameter is adjusted
- fx is bypassed

What's your preference for:
Preferences->Editing Behaviour->Mouse-> Mouse click on volume/pan faders and track buttons changes track selection?

Default == off.
But I don't think it matters. In the gif I click on the volume knob and stuff happens ok, and then I click on the send knob and nothing happens. It is not about track selection but about last touched track.

For me, last touched track should ALWAYS refer to the track last selected. It makes it obvious to know what track it is.
This is why I believe this option should be taken into account.

For tracks AND items AND AIs! A highlight around the edges that is easy to turn on - in the theme tweaker, for example.This is my only serious gripe about Reaper's appearance.
I think it is a UI priority to make obvious what's selected and what's not, whatever track or item colors are in effect.

+1 this is really important.

Now a smart way which some other DAWs implement is to desaturate items on muted tracks or make item's bg transparent or so. This is not to be fancy, it is based on how users perceive something muted. It is a design question how you translate muted sound into a visual cue.
