Adam 0 Posted October 10, 2019 Hey there, When I drag out a really long note in piano roll (say, more than 100 bars) the edit functions disappear and I just get a selection icon, but, the resize and move icons are no longer available to me. So, this means, when I create a long midi drone note I can't edit its length. It's driving me crazy: anybody know a fix? Hopefully it's not a bug and I'm doing something wrong. cheers, Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EdStauff 2 Posted November 20, 2020 This issue has been an ongoing problem for me, too. The only way I can graphically adjust the length of a long note at all is to zoom way out, but then I can't adjust it with the precision I need. It's still happening in version 2020.11 (Build 088, 64 bit). I can adjust the length using the Note Properties dialog, but then I have to calculate what the length should be. That approach would be okay for a note or two once in a while, but I have a lot of these notes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdStauff 2 Posted November 23, 2020 I found a workaround! 1. Add a new short temporary note that ends at the same time as the Very Long Note. 2. Select both notes, and then you can drag their ends to lengthen or shorten them. 3. Delete the temporary note. Not a perfect solution, but it beats the currently available alternatives. -- Ed 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

winkpain 71 Posted November 24, 2020 The problem seems to appear for me at a particular indeterminate zoom level and/or PRV screen/scroll position. Happy to see it's getting worked on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chris.r 668 Posted November 24, 2020 iirc I could help myself by changing the unresponsive note's length in the event list Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
