Right-click Copy/Cut/Paste/Duplicate

Post by cebec » Fri Jul 15, 2005 6:35 pm

Yeah, I know you can do this stuff from the Edit menu or press Delete when a clip is selected but why aren't these common functions included in the right-click context menus?

I also suggest a way of entering Track Volume directly in the Session view. I don't like having to switch to Arrangement view just to type in a specific Track Volume.

Thanks!

I'd also like to be able to delete ALL of the tracks. Is there a reason why one must remain, besides the Master?

Also, why aren't the higher grid resolutions available in the drop down for the Arrangement view and in the MIDI Note editor? Why do we still have to do the combination of Ctrl+1 and click dragging?

i think the standard CTRL (c, x, v) and CTRL z for undo keycommands are all you need.

they're so basic and useful, adding the options to the context menu would clutter it

but we are definitely missing cut, copy and paste from the new file management system. we can drag and drop, but still have to organize our audio samples from the OS file management for a lot of things

id like to be able to search, organize, and reshuffle all of my samples right from within live. the only thing we're missing for that is the cut copy paste.

Your wish will come true in one of the next bigger releases. We plan to extend the mixer section...
