New Follow Action: Play till the End (after looping)

Post by sznattila » Mon Apr 08, 2024 3:54 pm

Dear Devs,

Requesting new follow action or new clip behaviour in Session View:
When clip finished playing the looped part it should continue playing the parts that are in the clip, after the loop, all the way till the End Marker is set.
This would make sense when there are parts in the clip after the loop bracket and the End Marker of the Clip is set outside of that loop bracket.

Example: Let's have a 6 measure long clip I Session View.
Clip Start Marker is set at the beginning of the 1st measure: 1.0.0.
Loop Position is set at the beginning of the 3rd measure: 3.0.0.
Loop Length is set for 2 measures: 2.0.0
Clip End Marker is set at the end of the 6th measure.
Follow Action or Behaviour is set to Play till the End.
Follow Action Multiplier is set to 2X.

Result:
1. Clip starts playing from the beginning.
2. Plays the loop twice.
3. After the last loop, it continues playing until the End Marker.

The first 2 steps are already working, we need the last step implemented.

Also it would be nice if this follow action or behaviour could be combined with other follow actions like: First, Last, Next, Previous, Play Any, Jump to, Other, Play Again.

Thank you.
