screenset not loading when song opens.

[Wayne Bangert]

In CW/B the screen set will remember the one I setup and save. For example I have the song list, lyrics window and the track window open and positioned where i like it for performing. I name the screenset and lock the screenset and save the file. The lyrics window and the track that has the song lyrics will open when the song file is loaded and the name of the screenset will show in the window on the control bar when the screeset tool is loaded. In the current version of sonar the screen set will not remember what the current screenset is when the file opens so it loads no screen set. I can click on the screen set name or associated number and the screen set then remembers and I get the correct screens. I assume this is a bug that needs corrected.

[BUT] In the current version of sonar the screen set will not remember . . . the current screenset . . . when the file opens so it loads no screen set.

[THEN} I can click on the screen set . . . I get the correct screens. . . .

If I have edited your post to get the gist of the problem, it might be something that I have seen.

@Wayne Bangert  If when have the issue and you then select the same Workspace (even if its "None"), does the correct screen arrangement show up?

If you are using a Workspace, make sure you configure that workspace to not load screen layouts from that workspace.  These will override screen layouts set by screensets.

I use a combination of Workspace and screensets.  For any given project, I make sure my screensets are locked (only unlocking them to make changes, and then relocking).  None of my workspaces load their respective screen layouts.

YES SETTING THE WORKSPACE TO NONE DOES ALLOW THE SCREEN SETS TO SHOW WHEN OPENING THE TRACK. WHAT IS NOW HAPPENING IS THE LYRICS SCREEN DOES NOT REMEMBER THE SETTING FROM SCREENSET.  THE LYRICS SCREEN DOES OPEN BUT NOT THE CORRECT SIZE AND PLACEMENT FROM WHEN LOCKED SCREESET.

No need to shout we hear you! This is possibly due to the fact New Sonar has a whole new graphic engine. A lot of stuff looks different. I see various posts regarding graphic glitches in the Feedback thread. 

Possibly you can fix one project, save and name that as a new workspace and then all other projects should open the same. That's how it works for me.

I think I found the glitch. When I open a project from the existing song list the screenset (1) shows in the screenset window but the screen are not in the correct place. I removed the project from the song list and opened from the browser and the screenset behaves correctly. I added the project back into the song list and the screen set behaves correctly. If all I need to do is rebuild the song list then that is a easy fix.
