FOCUS on Clip Brackets Hotkey ... possible?

Post by supster » Wed Jul 19, 2006 7:23 pm

this is related to a request we have out to the abes to get a "Focus On Clip Braces" command into Live 6

the problem is - when manipulating the loop brackets in Clip View - any click elsewhere on the interface and the braces lose focus. hence you lose arrow / modifier key control over the clip braces

so live control over multiple loop braces becomes a chore while you are mixing two or more clips together. every move away from the braces or between clips involves a reach for the mouse pointer

IS there any way to get around this feature gap in the meantime. AutoHotkeys scripting? can it do it? How about max/msp?

very important feature, really opens a lot of possibilities if we can get this working ..thanks
