OddSox Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 The bug I want to talk about has been there since I remember and it has never been addressed. It's about deleting sections of tracks with "Delete hole" option checked. See the first picture. In this example clips in tracks 1-8 and 17 will be shifted and the selected part deleted but the remaining tracks will be un affected. Cakewalk for some reason decides that the selected empty space should be ignored. That's definitely not the way I imagine this should work. In the second example absolutely nothing will happen when you try to remove the empty section. You can try both Delete Special or Cut Special with the same result.

OddSox Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 thanks, I wasn't aware of that ripple editing thing I tried it but it is not perfect. Here is before and after. As you can see all my sections are gone after deletion If I uncheck "Arranger sections" in the dialog box the sections are not deleted but they are not shifted either. Am I still doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OddSox Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) It seems to work fine for all tracks except for the arranger track. with 'ripple edit all' option my sections in the arranger track disappear after pressing delete key, with 'ripple edit selection' the sections remain in place and they are not shifted. but I found a workaround. basically the problem is that I don't have a section within the selected part and before it so I just made them! and now it is working correctly. I still think this doesn't work the way I imagine it should but at least there is a simple workaround. thanks again for all your suggestions and help! PS. I noticed on your profile your birthday is April 2. So is mine! ? Edited January 30, 2023 by OddSox I remembered something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a fix - it'll be in the next release. In the meantime, adding a temporary section like you've suggested will work as a workaround. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
