Editing As-Performed Attack

[Sherry C]

Hi Ralph,


Thanks for attaching a test file so that we're working on the same thing.
When I do the steps you listed for that C5 in measure 4, it works fine for me.
I wonder if maybe you are using the numeric keypad and it is toggled to a different state? Or maybe some other computer keyboard configuration option is on your keyboard or operating system?
I'm using version 5.1.4 for testing.


ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry,

When you say, "When I do the steps you listed for that C5 in measure 4, it works fine for me.", are you keying in the number of ticks, as in "d-200", or are you using David's approach, i.e. d-left arrow? I can use David's method, but I'd rather get my method to work. Using the arrow keys can be quite time consuming when changing large values or changing a lot of notes.

The numeric keypad does not work for me - I'm just using the numbers at the top of a standard keyboard. And, to my knowledge, I have no modifications to my keyboard set-up.

A couple of additional things I didn't mention in my posting is that I don't always get the yellow error message. At times, I get nothing.

I've been looking a some of my older scores where I would have been keying a lot of changes to duration and/or attack and nothing is jogging my memory. I was writing a lot more in the 2014 - 2020 time frame.

Any other suggestions? I remember there were considerable changes in Composer when the piano roll engine went sub-rosa under Sound.
