charles kasler Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 i am used to right-clicking to split a clip but it's grayed out now. What am I missing? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Where is it grayed out? Smart Tool: Alt+left-click Edit Tool>Split: Left-click Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charles kasler Posted November 9, 2023 Author Share Posted November 9, 2023 I've always used the smart tool & right click/S to split but it's grayed out now, at least on this track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark skinner Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Charles , I just put the curser where I want to split. With the smart tool engaged , I just hover over the top half of the clip on the curser. The pointer changes its icon and I just left click. Don't have to right click and choose an option.

sjoens Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 (edited) I can't reproduce this. Looks like your right-click menu thinks there's no selected clips when the track shows there is. Could be a project related bug. @mark skinner - Hovering over the upper half invokes the Move tool while the lower half invokes the Selection cursor. How are you getting the Split tool that way?

David Baay Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Clips with ARA FX applied can't be split. You'll either need to remove the FX or bounce it into the clip. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettelus Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Also... track operations will be greyed out if nothing is selected. Unless I am missing something with that screenshot, a clip must be selected so CbB knows what it is splitting. Unless that theme shows selected clips as "grey," that clip is not selected.

sjoens Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 (edited) It appears it's Track 2, which is both selected and in focus. But apparently his menu thinks it's not maybe due to a Regional FX as David Baay mentioned. Whenever I right-click a clip to get the menu, the track/clip is automatically focused & selected. If it's not in Regional FX, I would try it on other clips and other projects to confirm it's not a project glitch.

How are you getting the Split tool that way? I have No idea . I have been doing it that way for years.. After about an hour of splitting clips this morning .. it suddenly Stopped working ! I had just gone thru a workspace issue where I couldn't bring up the console view , and it Was on a bounced melodyned clip. So , one or more of these probably had something to do with the split behavior changing. I had to revert to the edit split tool . I'll try to sort it out later today and will try the alt/left click and a different project. Responding to this thread may have just Jinxed me.. ms Edited November 11, 2023 by mark skinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 (edited) Almost sounds like your using an older CbB or Sonar version. Edited November 10, 2023 by sjoens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark skinner Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I'm on the latest 2023 update. When I did the update a few weeks ago my custom workspace settings got lost. I had to do a custom one (before the last update) to get my console view to load up. I just opened another project , I now have to use the alt/left click to do a split on any track (as it should be) Still can't get my console view up unless I use the "mix" in workspaces. Something suddeny changed. I'll look further and start a new thread if I can't get it. Sorry Charles , didn't mean to hijack this thread , I hope your problem got solved.. mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
