Also... I've created a cmnd. key for "set position as a way to navigate through the timeline since there is no way to go one bar at a time say... but the dialog that pops up doesn't let me type in a number. Like 10, for bar 10? Or even a way to go one bar at a time with the arrow keys... I have to keep moving 1/4 bar at a time to go say 10 bars? I'd like to use that as a way to navigate quickly in addition to markers. Would be nice if it popped up and let me type in a number.

Thanks!

Change times and all of the other "functions" changes the end of the note. Not the beginning. Unless I'm missing something? I want to shift the beginning of all the notes. Forward or backward.

Oh and one more...

These are interface ideas/requests that I've come to be attached to in Logic...

1. When selecting a track, could I assign a kybd. cmnd. that shows all the automation for that track and hides as well? So the default state is hidden but if the track is selected a cmnd. shows the automation? Rather than brings up a dialog box?

2. Selecting areas of the interface, i.e. tab key lets me select the tracks on the left and up and down key scrolls through the tracks... then of course you could show automation or expand or collapse a track. Things I do in Logic that make it east to have a lot of tracks but keep the screen space in control.

3. The auto expand a track - or track expand to 1-3 set sizes? Useful when one has 15-20 tracks... which I do all the time.

Thanks!

I don't get it. Nothing changed recently in that app area.
Which version were you using before?
Are you sure it was not working in that previous version and now it is working in 4.0.107?

Tracks or Racks?

Those Mute and Solo buttons on the tracks look great but even better when horizontal as when making the tracks small. It follows the same positions as in the Racks, it shows better what is mute and solo. And could they be lasso the same way on the racks?

Is it possible to insert ( custom skin) a grey line between the rack meters left and right indicators? They look a little strange with the max lines hanging there, almost like a broken meter feeling.

Yes . Weird... I just loaded the latest version again this morning and it is working. Was not yesterday. Maybe my computer is doing some weird stuff. I need to reformat the disk and start over, but there is too much stuff on here and I'm too busy.

Tracks as in the left side of the arrange/composition window. Racks already can be reduced and expanded. So when selecting a track (left side of window) they expand to a preset size (1-3) when selecting another track they reduce again to small size and the new track expands. Nice for seeing what you're working on be it midi or audio? That's the way Logic works anyway...

It depends on what you ask it to do. If you ask to move the Note Off positions, you'll change note lengths.

Explain ...How does note off have anything to do with shifting the beat/note forward from it's current grid position?

Just a tip: When you create locators in the composition, then forward/rewind will step thru these locators. Maybe this feature is useful to you.

Sequence -> Functions -> Change Times does change the start time of the (selected) events.

If you enter for example -0.1.0000 then 1 beat is subtracted.
This can also be abbreviated to -.1
For all music times are written in the format Bars.Beats.Ticks

I've put them vertical if possible to gain space for the name.

Added on the WL.

I tried it but to me it doesn't look better.
When working on the racks, i also quickly checked some other apps and they also don't have a divider between left/right.

Naming locators would be nice...
No user locators yet in sequences. Added on the WL.
