Unable to access dropdown tabs in some VSTs
Posted: Tue Oct 26, 2021 8:36 am
I have recently run into an issue where I an unable to use the dropdown menu boxes in some plugins (Valhalla Space Modulator, Valhalla Supermassive and Bigkick). All of these plugins used to work fine and I can still use the arrow buttons in the plugins to cycle through presents but seemingly out of the blue the dropdown menus now don't do anything when I try click on them. I have tried reinstalling all of the effected plugins and I have done a fresh reinstall of Ableton but have had no luck fixing the issue. Also I have tried using the VST3 versions of the Valhalla plugins but am still left with the same issue.
I'm out of ideas about what has happened and how to fix this so if anyone has some insight that can help I would greatly appreciate it.
Update:
So it turns out some plugins dropdown menus don't show up if you are using a secondary monitor and you have Ableton opened on anything but the "main". I probably should have realised this was what was causing the issue earlier but hey since I cant delete this post I guess I will leave this here for anyone else that runs into this issue.
