[solved] fit project to window /song duration too long

[Sakini]

I use view / fit project to window

So the end of the projet is about 12 hours instead of 3 minutes.

I dont have any midi informations or audio after 3 minutes

Why the end of the song seem to be about 12 hours ?

solved ! commit arrangement resolve this issue

I have the same issue with one project. This seems to work but doesn't explain why the issue existed.

I have an untested theory that under certain conditions if you forget to stop the transport during even playback the project thinks it’s that long. So if you started the transport and left if going for 12 hours the project is now 12 hours long as far as the view is concerned.

Help. I really don't use arranger tracks. Is there any other way to fix it such that when I select "fit project" it will fill the pane with the actual project width wise instead of crunching it because of something out in the distant right which was never purposely put there.

Showing my years here, but I did not have this issue way back in my sonar studio/platinum era. I'm sure there's an easy way to do it or I am doing something wrong. I hope!

Any thoughts?

Yes, you need to delete the intervening space

Best way is to use Ripple Edit All

Select the time region between where you want it to end and where Cakewalk thinks it ends and press delete

SWITCH OFF RIPPLE EDIT WHEN YOU'VE DONE!!!!

Thank you.  I've tried to delete the intervening space, but I was not adding the Ripple Delete "magic sauce". Yum!!!!!    Thank you so much Bristol!!!!!
