Tracktion Software

Just jumped to v10 a few days ago, everything great, so far... but tried to split a track and the “/“ doesn’t work, it collapses all tracks to the left and gives me a full bunch of empty space with the visible tracks in a tiny space in the left, always the same, anyone knows what’s happening here?

The slash key is for splitting clips, not tracks.
But you're right. The slash key doesn't do that.
This must be a bug.

Just changed the shortcut to alt+F1 and it works....

I did the same, but shortcut are reset when you restart Waveform.

The clip needs to be selected to be split.

It is working for me (on a Mac).

I've got Waveform 10 (10.0.24) on a Windows 10 laptop.

I highlighted a clip, positioned the cursor, pressed /, and the clip was split.

I then highlighted clips on two tracks, positioned the cursor, pressed /, and both clips were split.

I tried the exact same and it does not work.
Instead it zooms out to display 190 bars on the screen (the clips only go to bar 33).
Doing a split with the menu command in the bottom panel works as it should.
Windows 10, Waveform 10.0.26.

I used the slash key above the numeric keypad on my Asus laptop.
Could this be another problem that affects only non-us keyboards?

Strange. Mine's Asus too, with a standard UK QWERTY keyboard. I used the slash key in the main part of the keyboard, just above the wider Ctrl key. I'll try the other one... does the same as the other one.

On a Swedish keyboard there is a hyphen above the wider ctrl key. This key does the same as the slash key above the numeric keypad! It zooms out ridicously.
Looking at the shortcut settings page, hyphen is mapped to "zoom out fast". So there you have the problem.

Sounds like your "/" key is sending a "-"... does it type a "/" character into a text editor?

This is what it types: ////////////

And the hyphen key is typing: -----

Where is that command in the bottom panel?
At least I could use that....
