Live 8 Intro Automation - Curving the Lines

Post by spendthrift2 » Thu Jan 31, 2019 2:12 pm

Quick question.

I'm trying to curve the automation in Live's arrangement view after recording some automation on MIDI I drew into piano roll, and it won't let me adjust the curvature. I can add and remove breakpoints to get smooth lines but then when I want to make them sweep up or drop out, I can't bend the lines. I've googled it and tried Shift, Control, and Alt. I've also tried toggling draw mode. It's not working! :roll:

Does anyone know why this won't work? Sorry I know Live Intro 8 is a bit of a dinosaur.

Oh... So it's not a feature available for Live 8 Intro. Fancy that. Thanks Twisted-Space.
