Having another go at Workspaces

[Starship Krupa]

One issue in the past with trying to use Workspaces has been that too many of the settings I've already set up get changed. Window position, etc.

At the moment, I think I've figured out how to not have it shuffle my windows around when I don't want it to (mostly I do, after all, it's a custom view).

However, one of the important things for me is which strips are visible and not visible in Track and Console Views. Specifically, in the case of Split Instruments, I always set the MIDI tracks visible (and Synth hidden) in the Track View so that I have access to the clips for editing. Conversely, I show the Synth strips and hide Midi in the Console View, as my focus there is audio mixing, and I'd only ever change a setting in a Console MIDI strip by accident. If I need to work with a MIDI console strip, I do it in the Inspector.

I have a workspace for "Erik's Mixing," and it's mostly working as I would like, meaning that it eliminates various elements that I don't need at mixdown and pops open the Console maximized on monitor 2 for really getting my mix on. The one thing that's still not what I want is strips visibility. The Workspace always turns on the MIDI strips in the Console. This seems like something that Workspaces are aimed at addressing: making elements visible/invisible.

What do I need to do to either stop this from happening, or better still, set up a Workspace that hides and shows the types of tracks/strips I want to hide or show?

That's odd. I just did a test.  It looks like MIDI does not stick. They just need to add it.  They must have missed it.
