The Now Time cursor depends on some of these graphics features to render properly, and there is really no performance benefit to be gained in Cakewalk by disabling any of them in my experience. Right on, David! Have done this as well, and we'll see if it happens again... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkpain Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I guess I'll add this here because it's a weird display thing. ( I haven't had the "ghost" line yet, btw) This has been happening for a while (since well before changing Windows visual preferences just today). Whenever I open my console window, notice how the Gain, Send, and Pan dials are all weird until I shrink and reopen the window.... 2019-09-06-18-03-16.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user 905133 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I was trying to figure out why someone wasn't getting to see Virtual Controllers and I got something that looks like a Ghost Time Marker. Has this issue been solved? If not, does someone need to reproduce it intentionally? If so, maybe the steps I used will help. I should add that today I used my Dell Display Manager to make visual zones and am not sure if that is the cause.

Or, does it stay in the same place on your computer display? Mine stays in the same place on the display. See below (marked in a blue box). [image showing ghost line removed - no longer needed] UPDATE: As long as I had Cakewalk running, I had the Ghost Time Marker--even after resizing, moving, minimizing and re-opening Cakewalk. After I shut Cakewalk down, I could not reproduce it myself (even trying to follow the same steps that caused it). Edited December 18, 2023 by User 905133 image removed; to add a note: I can't reproduce it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user 905133 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just a footnote about ghost cursors. I just had one, but it's gone now, so there's no way to diagnose it further. I am guessing there can be multiple triggers/causes. Here are somethings I observed: 1. I was exploring the potential to cut and paste from one project to another. I had multiple projects open. 2. When I switched to one project's main window (Track View), I got a ghost cursor. 3. When I switch back to the other project's main window, I could see that the ghost cursor had been in the position of the first project's main window. It's gone now, but perhaps this leads to what I previously thought, possibly the ghost cursor comes a re-draw function. I have no experience coding GUIs, using GUI APIs, but in case the ghost cursor continues to affect users, maybe this info will be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Staton Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Hi all, So the 'ghost cursor' thing is a known issue that shows up from time to time. We know what causes it, but it's not a trivial fix so please bear with us while we figure it out. Fortunately it's totally benign, and tends to clear itself up quickly. @winkpain Your issue is unrelated but no less important. Thanks for the video, which is always useful when tracking bugs down. In your case it helped me to reproduce the problem right away, and we'll try to get it fixed for next release. Thanks! Edit: @winkpain I just fixed your specific issue, so look out for it in the next release. To clarify, we're still working on the ghost cursor issue, which isn't resolved yet. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkpain Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Curious about the ghost cursor thing. I'm still getting it even with the latest release. Although I have not seen the other issue I outlined above, thank the Bakers (I assume). Just reporting in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
