Hi,

Is it possible to make the arrangement insert marker (this little yellow triangle) visible on the midi clip editor? It works the opposite way - by clicking at any point in the midi editor you also see its position in the arrangement. But moving the arrangement insert marker does not affect the position of the midi clip's own insert marker.

I need to know this as I sometimes want to move midi notes in a clip to a specific point in the arrangement. I could also do this reffering to the time rulers, but midi editor's and arrangement rulers are different...

short answer... no.
long answer...the only function of arrangement markers is allow you to jump from one to the next...
the arrangement view shows you the absolute time in the arranger...
the clip view shows you the timing of the clip...
there is no direct relation between what you see in the clip view to to what you see the arrangement view...time wise..
