Jim Kalinowski Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'm also running build 2019-07 build 79, 64 bit, and lenses are seriously messed up. Everytime I switch to a different screenset, it's as if Cakewalk randomly decides what to display in the screenset. I have "None" selected for the lens. Once I switch to the screenset, I have to select "None" again in the lenses to fix the issue. You can see the UI going through some processing, and then everything appears correctly. Anyone else having issues like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else having issues like this? I believe there was a post I read a few weeks ago that addressed some interactions between lenses and screensets.* Since reading that, my novice use of lenses has made more sense. Not saying they aren't messed up, but as I explore the uses of lenses, I am mindful that I really don't understand (1) how they work and (2) how the lenses feature and the screensets feature interact. For a couple of test lenses, they have done what I wanted them to do. At the risk of oversimplification, screenshots are "per project" while lenses are "global." (Maybe a power user can explain the nuances in better detail.) So, for me, if I want screenshots to behave like they did before I played with lenses, I select "None." I have only created about four or five test lenses, so I am not claiming expert knowledge; just saying that at this point for me I don't fully understand what's going on, not that they are seriously messed up. They might be, but based on what you wrote about having to choose "None," it sounded very much like my initial experiences. Apologies if you have been more thorough in your explorations of lenses and have indeed uncovered some "bugs." *ADDENDUM: It might have been one or more of the posts in this thread, or a restatement of similar ideas.

Promidi Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 What I do is when I configure and save a lense, I use Lense Manager to deselect Windows layout for that lense. That way, Windows layouts are solely handled by Screensets. Because I do this, changing Lenses has no effect on Windows layouts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Jarvis Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 The first time I opened Cakewalk I set up the GUI the way I wanted(within reason ), then saved it as a Lens and use it as my default. I've never used screensets, they seem useless to me...if I was only going to work on one project forever it would make sense but I move on That and a 4-monitor setup makes you spoiled!

Promidi Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 The thing I like about Screensets is that they can be assigned to key bindings. Lenses cannot. You can also transfer Screensets from one project to another.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kalinowski Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I tried unchecking Windows Layouts and just about everything else in the Lens Manager, with no luck. I'm not too surprised this didn't work because I have "None" selected as the lens. Yet, when I change screensets the track view is messed up (missing tracks, floating folders, folders that won't expand or collapse). I can fix it by reselecting "None" in the lenses pulldown (which is why I think this problem is related to lenses). Today I tried using a lens (the "Advanced" lens that comes with cakewalk). That lens also seemed to cause issues with the track view. I have a reasonable work around, so it's not a show stopper. Maybe it will be fixed in a future release.
