I will fear not ๐. Based on the guys on the Facebook groups, I got the feeling people were more relaxed and open. Many are, to be honest. So seem the guys at Bandlab.

I never even used it in my own projects so don't I'm one, be allergic to that! You see assumptions in thinking you know something, well it keeps your head buried in the sand. Get a manual of Cakewalk study it and come back to comment. If you can't follow instructions well, good luck in learning anything to it's core. All you do is insulting who's been trying to help you, newbie. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olaf Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Added two more suggestions: "Duplicate Track" option in the Console View, in the right click menu, same as in the Track View. Mouse Scroll wheel moves slider on both scroll bars (vertical and horizontal scrolling), on placing cursor over them - in all Workspaces.

I locked this thread but have decided to reopen it as long as everyone can play nice and not add any insults toward one another.

Or I may want to discuss or clarify some of them. Hi, Jim! I understand what you're saying, but think about posting - at this point - 76 different posts, and then talking separately on all 76 of them. It would mean flooding the forum, which I wanted to avoid, one, and then, generate endless discussions about all of them - cause you know how those can get. Plus, I thought about having a centralized document for changes. My initial idea was not to go into debate for each, but put them out there, on a list, so that people can vote in the way of "hm, I would to see this, that, and that, this and the other may be helpful, and don't want this, that, and that", so that we can get a notion of those that will be the most requested, to bring them forward to the attention of Bandlab. A sort of simple voting. That doesn't mean we can't talk about them or have alternative suggestions - if there's better ideas on how to simplify some operations, why not - I mean, that's the idea. ย So feel free to ask. It'd be nice to talk about the actual suggestions, instead of judgments over intentions, for a change. ย 17 hours ago, Jim Fogle said: Placing all of your suggestions in one post makes it more difficult for me to agree or disagree with each suggestion. You've actually given me an idea. I'm noing to number them, instead of the bullets, so that you, or anyone, can easily address 1, 5, 25, etc. Would that help?

Jim Fogle Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Olaf, I agree a discussion about intent is a little off topic.ย I apologize for that even though I'm actually enjoying having a civil discussion.ย Civil discussions seem to have lost favor as a way to exchange different points of view. You last post gave me an idea.ย When you create a new topic there are two tabs across the top, one for discussions and one for polls.ย How about creating a poll for each of the 76 suggestions? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about that, and every time there's a disagreement - or even misunderstanding - the first reflex is to put somebody down or insult, which effectively makes any longer term relationship impossible, since disagreement between any two people is, at some point, inevitable. 9 hours ago, Jim Fogle said: How about creating a poll for each of the 76 suggestions?

Jim Fogle Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 @Olaf, I don't think I've seen a post where multiple feedback suggestions are presented in a poll so your post will be a first for this forum. I'm looking forward to seeing it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olaf Posted February 6, 2020 Author Share Posted February 6, 2020 @Jim Fogle I think I'll break it down in smaller chunks, of 10 or so, so people don't get discouraged by it being too long. Need to find the time to choose/start with the things that will be the biggest gain in the short run. Any preferences? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have put a lot of effort in to this list, i would love to see the points you made in a more focused section. There was another user who put up a list of 50+ ideas once and was meet with a similar point of view. I love hearing others ideas, so keep up the good work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
