add automation point, double click alters value
Posted: Tue Jun 28, 2011 10:14 pm
It's really a major problem since a long long time.
problem: when you add an automation point via double click (mouse) the current value is often shifted a bit.
example: volume is 0db and you add a point, the point is 0.7 db
- create an automation lane for the value parameter from a utily plugin
- double click on the lane to create an automation point
reason:-> if your mouse cursor is a bit below or above the automation lane however the colour indicates it's selected you get a small value shift.

wish: implement something to prevent this
, a short "when mouse click, wait if there is a second one - if so don't shift the value back" or a small dead zone. it's so cumbersome to correct 50% of the added automation points.
