Jerzy Peter Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Hello everybody, For some unknown reason, Cakewalk Status Area is not shown anymore. Before when I launched Cakewalk it was scanning plugins, and it was showing the status of progress in this area. When finished it displayed total of all plugins, how many new plugins, how many errors, how many deleted. When I created a new project it displayed some text in this area. I'm running the latest version 2019.01 (Build 27). I checked all previous versions and it's the same problem. Checked Sonar Platinum, the same. Thanks for any help BTW. For scanning plugins I was checking all the options: Automatic Background Scan, Manual, etc. thes same problem. Edited February 1, 2019 by Jerzy Peter
scook Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 There may be a dialog from the scanner waiting for user input. Check the Windows Task Manger. The vstscan.exe may be stalled. There are notification preferences settings for newer versions of CbB but I do not believe they will affect Platinum.
Jerzy Peter Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 Thanks for your answer. Task Manager is OK, the option to show notifications is checked.
Jerzy Peter Posted February 2, 2019 Author Posted February 2, 2019 Solved! I have 6 monitors connected to my computer. 5 are sitting on the computer desk and the 6th is in my living room. I turned them on, (except the one in ling room!) and check if this status is in any monitors. This status was in the living room! 1
John Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 All you need now is a monitor to monitor your monitor. 1
chris.r Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) An extra 6th monitor in my bedroom with the status bar is a brilliant idea. Thanks! Edited February 4, 2019 by chris.r
Jerzy Peter Posted February 3, 2019 Author Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) The sixth monitor is only to watch TV, movies from internet on my big screen TV. Do you think I moved this window to the 6th monitor on purpose? Windows is still poor with managing multiple monitors. Edited February 3, 2019 by Jerzy Peter 1

It was just making a casual fun because it happened to sound really funny the way you described it , no jeering intended! Cheers.
Jerzy Peter Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 It's really useful to have multiple monitors.
chris.r Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 With my next studio setup I hope to manage 3 monitors from windows os. Will see how it's going.
whistlekiller Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I currently have two largish monitors running off a graphics card, an iPad running via the 'Duet' USB interface and am planning to use the onboard graphics to run a fourth monitor (just a 17" square one) in the near future. The Windows 10 (1809) system doesn't seem to have any undue problems managing this set-up. Multiple monitors are extremely helpful and make life a lot easier for me with Cakewalk.
