Can't Get 16th Notes to Space at 16th Intervals SOLVED

[Michael McBroom]

I'm using what I believe to be the latest version of CWbBL. At least it hasn't shown that little update reminder, so I guess I'm current.

I just ran into a weird situation that I've never encountered before. When I write music, I usually write at the Staff View. Just Old School, I guess. So anyway, I clicked on the 16th note icon and tried to write a group of 16ths, but the program is spacing them at 8th note intervals. I even went into the Piano Roll and tried it from there, but it wouldn't take the 16th spacing in the Piano Roll either.

I had my resolution (in the Staff View: VIew>Display Resolution>1/16) set to 16ths. I increased it to 32nds, hoping that might make a difference. It didn't. I looked through a few other menus but didn't find anything helpful. I know there must be a setting somewhere that's set to what I don't want, but I don't have any idea where else to look. Help?

Oh, and I tried it on multiple tracks and none of them seem to be going for the 16th spacing. So it must be some sort of global setting?

Your snap to grid is probably set at 1/8

Ding ding ding! You got it John. I never usually pay attention to "Snap to Grid" so it just didn't occur to me to even look for it. But sure enough. Well, things are back to where I need them and all's good to go. Thanks again.

Snap to grid is a pretty useful tool. You defiantly need it set correctly for many functions. Example crop/ copy pasting of clips. And adding notes in PVR.
