Right Click Delete command no longer working

Post by binaryfinary » Thu Jan 07, 2010 2:49 am

So it seems through the upgrade (8.1.1) process some fairly important workflow commands have been stuffed up.

I cannot right click with the mouse on a channel or selection of channels and delete them. Nothing happens. I have to select the channel and hit the delete key on a keyboard. Also the same when you right click on a clip to delete. Not a massive deal, although very annoying. If this simple thing is broken, what else is broken?

Checked this on a friends machine and its exactly the same.

Worries me that the ableton testing process isn't very strong at the moment. We've had a plethora of updates in the last couple of months, all with their own little issues.

We invest a great deal of time into Ableton Live and although I love it, these types of things do not help to give a sense of security.

Interested in others views on this. Also on Ableton's take. QA needs to be improved as far as i'm concerned.

Hi Binaryfinary,

right-click delete is working fine over here, tested on multiple machines. Which operating system do you use?

Best,

Hey Jörg,

Using Mac OSX 10.6.2

Was tested on another Mac OSX 10.6.2 machine and showed the same behaviour.

What machines/OS's have you tested this on?

Cheers.

Note to self, reboot before posting a problem.

After rebooting the issue has resolved itself. Funny it was the only thing that didn't work. oh well...

Cheers.

Hi Stuey,

nevermind, glad the command is working again on your system.
