Option + Drag notes in Matrix editor problem

I cant say when this started but at some point holding option while dragging a note to copy it stopped working as expected. Basically I want to copy a note in the matrix editor and I want it to go where I drag it (am I asking too much?). Right now as soon as I drop the note in the desired position it jumps forward several beats. Did I do something that changed the way the option key works? If I just drag the note without holding option the note goes where I want it. But as soon as I option + drag. I get this wackyness!! its hugely frustrating! Thanks in advance for any help.

Well I have a workaround now but am still confused. I discovered that if I click the little button "featuring a square graphic" in the upper left corner of my matrix window (manual says its called the "Up One Display Level button—or
UDL button"), it fixes the problem... for that matrix edit window only. As soon as I close it and reopen it (by double clicking on a midi region) it goes back into crazy freak **** mode. Something else I noticed is that when I reopen the matrix editor window the little screen read out area (that displays the notes etc under Edit/Functions/View) says "sel 1" right above the notes etc. It says this when its in crazy freak **** mode. When I click the UDL button it changes from "sel 1" to "1/AudioInst 1" which is the instrument for the midi Im working on. So how do I get crazy freak **** mode to stop messing up my matrix editor windows? Its great to have a workaround but its a pain in the butt to have to remember to push this button ( that I never needed to push before) so I can properly option+drag a midi note. I tried reading the manual about this button but I just dont get what its for (other than turning off freak **** mode). And I forgot to mention my logic version before: Logic version 7.2.1 (959.30) Thanks again in advance if you can help me:)

  • Shift-Drag and Option Drag not working

    I am using InDesign CC and my Shift-Drag to constrain in a direction has stopped working. Also my Option-Drag to duplicate has stopped working. Both work fine in Illustrator. Any help is appreciated....

    It happens to me also, when I have external devices connected, like a beamer, a second screen, etc. Happens not with every device, but with some of them. Very bad situation if you make presentations or consulting and no shortcut works from one moment to the next.
    I have not discovered exactly what this problem is causing, otherwise I would have filed a bug repaort against it to Adobe.

  • Shift option drag not working

    Hi all,
    Today my Shft Option drag is not working. When I click on an object and hit shift-option and drag the object, it should move in a horizontal or vertical direcion, but it does not. When I hold the shift key, the object can still be moved in any direction without stagering. I have never seen this before. Anyone know how to fix this?

  • Moving notes in Matrix editor

    Is there a key command to move notes up/down without having to drag with mouse?
    Thanks

    that's your left and right arrows. unless you have set them to be something different that overrides it. actually i am not all that sure that it was default, something stirs in my recollection about setting the command.
    the key command is something like "transpose by +1/-1"
    I think you'll find it in various editors.

  • Selecting a note in matrix editor and it doesn't sound

    I always get the tone of the note when I select it. Now, for some reason, it is muted. What setting did I inadvertently change?

    Make sure that the Audio Instrument track with the MIDI data you are editing is actually selected.

  • Matrix editor: make selected notes the same length broken?

    I used to select a group of notes in matrix editor, then drag one of those with SHIFT+ALT to make them all the same length.
    This appears as broken in LPX (10.0.6), as the behaviour is inconsistent: sometimes it works as expected (as in LP9), other times it just de-selects the clicked note.
    This looks like a bug to me... Any ideas?

    hi Eriksimon
    thanks that actually helped!
    However, ALT+SHIFT is not SHIFT so I struggle to understand why they changed the behavior from LP9 breaking users' gesture memory to no apparent advantage.

  • Playbook and Windows XP : Media Options are not available

    Hi, hoping someone can help me as two lengthy calls to RIM have yielded no results.
    I am running Windows XP SP3 with spec well above the min requirements for Blackberry desktop software, of which I downloaded the latest version from RIM's site today.
    Software recognises the PB and connects fine (displays PIN etc) yet I get two different errors:
    1) Device Options > Media
    "Media options are not available". A problem occured while attempting to connect to your Blackberry device
    2) File > Get Started (dragging and dropping files)
    "Media services are not available". A problem occured while attempting to connect to your Blackberry device
    I've redownloaded the BDM software twice (both options for PC > and Sync >) with no result. I've tried different USB ports (same wire) and the same problem.
    I notice when right clicking on the Device Manager > Properties that I see under Volumes "Internal Storage Not Mounted" which I doubt is helping.
    Playbook Storage and Sharing Options have fiel sharing turned on, and UBS connections = Auto Detect (tried "Connect to Windows") and no result.
    Any ideas?

    I may have a workaround for all you fellow sufferers.
    In your playbook tap the information icon (uppermost right corner).  Tap about and where it says view information about your tablet tap the down arrow and select network.  There you will find one or two IPV4 addresses one for usb the other for wifi. 
    In Windows (7 don't know about XP or Vista click on start and in the search bar type the following
    run \\either IPV4 address.
    With any luck, Windows explorer will  pop up giving you access to your playbook for file transfers.
    Once you have done that, and if you prefer a two panel file manager as I do for file transfers, download and install a program called FreeCommander.  This program will allow you to access a network drive from somewhere in its top menu (can't recall where at the moment and I'm not in Windows).  Up will pop a screen asking you for a drive letter to be assigned (take your pick) and a location.  In this area type \\either IPV4 url\media.  You should now be able to access this drive from FreeCommander and easily transfer files to and from your playbook and computer.
    Don't guarantee that this will work for you but it has for me.

  • Editor option is not opening for table object

    Hi Experts,

Do anyone having any idea how to slove this problem.
    Regards
    Ani

    Hi,
    Are you by any chance trying to run OWB on a 64 bit client? I have seen similar problems to what you are describing when trying to run OWB on 64 bit Windows. If this is the case you should try to use a 32 bit client machine
    Regards

  • Matrix Editor & Multiple Regions: Moving Note Start Earlier Doesn't Work

    Hi,
    When viewing multiple regions in the Matrix editor, I can't move the start time of a note to the left (leaving the end position the same). This move works just fine when viewing a single region in Matrix.
    Funny thing is that although the note won't budge, the move is listed in the Undo History as "Undo Left Corner Change".
    Feels like a bug, but before I go there...
    Can anyone confirm this behavior? It would be great to know if it happens in 7.1.1 as well as 7.2.3.
    Best,
    -=iS=-

    MS,
    Thanks for correctly pronouncing my name! LOL!
    Wouldnt dragging the note or notes to an
    earlier starting place and lengthen the right hand
    side give you operation you wanted?
    Yes, indeed it would. But then I'd have to remember where the ending should be.
    Wait a second... (think, think, think...)
    Ah, yes, I could slice the note in two, leaving the end piece as a place marker, move the first piece backwards to where I want it to start, then glue the two pieces together.
    Good suggestion! Thanks for that. (DING! DING! DING!)

  • Problem with Matrix Editor

    I have recently been unable to open the matrix editor when trying to edit midi notes. I did a search to see if anyone else experienced this, I found some clues but I am still having problems. I am pretty sure it is my system and not the midi files I am getting off the net. I tried opening a track that I had edited before and nothing. The windows menu highlights when I press "command 6" but nothing happens. All of the other windows open except the matrix.
    First I made sure the "links" button was greyed out. I can only get it to turn purple and grey. I thought it used to turn yellow. Is there some other setting I have mistakenly switch off. I am really frustrated and need a fresh perspective. Thanks for you time. Phil

    Not quite sure what happened but for some reason I ran the setup as AU assistants again just for the heck of it. Now the window open with no problem or hesitation. I just love computers ( when they do what I want them to)!

  • Option-drag selection not working in CS6 layer panel

    Thought I'd force myself to use CS6 on a new project. I want to select multiple objects using "Option-drag", in the Layer Panel, but it doesn't work as it does in CS5.
    Is there a different shortcut for selecting multiple contiguous objects using the Layer Panel, in CS6? Of course, I mean "Select" not "highlight".
    Thanks.

    Ok so it has been omitted in CS 6 and I think the reason is is because of the change to the Layers panel function.
    That is because you can now rename and object directky with the Layers Panel rather than use the Layer Options.
    Whether this wa intentional or by accident I do not know but that is why I think it has been changed.
    I would make a feature request to either return it to Option Drag or Or Option Click to select a contigous selection of objects.
    I notice that many people use names for their paths on even modest ai files so I would think being able to name the objects and layers are a really important feature but so is the feature you referring to though I think Click-Option Click would be even better on rellly large complex Illustrations.

  • When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?

    When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?

    Try making separate desktop icons for the Editor and Organizer. You can then launch directly. The standard desktop icon is for the welcome screen which often runs in the background or doesn’t shut down properly.
    Start by right-clicking on the desktop and select:
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
    Inside the Photoshop Elements 13 folder make sure you select the application (not a shortcut) by scrolling down to the files beginning with the letter P and highlighting ‘PhotoshopElementsEditor’
    Then click next followed by finish.
    You can repeat for the Organizer using the different file path.
    New >> Shortcut
    Then browse to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 13 Organizer
    Highlight ‘PhotoshopElementsOrganizer’
    Then click next, followed by finish.
    Now that you have your separate desktop icons you can delete the one for the welcome screen, if preferred. On Mac try launching directly from Applications. [if not using PSE13 substitute your own version and go to Program Files (x86)]

  • ITunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved?  What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?

    iTunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved?  What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?
    Many people have the same problem. However, there is little or nothing readily available to users. This problem has existed for two or more years. Does anyone have anything to offer about this disturbing problem?

    Thanks for the suggestion kcell. I've tried both versions
    9.0.115 and 9.0.124 and both fail with the policy permission error.
    I also tried with and without your crossdomain.xml file but
    with the same result. It looks like this file is intended for URL
    policy, instead of socket policy. Recently Adobe separated the two.
    When I run with the files installed on my dev PC, it does
    work, which makes sense because the flash player isn't loaded from
    an unknown domain.
    I did get one step closer. If a crossdomain.xml in the server
    root exists and the socketpolicy file is loaded from the app folder
    then the first two warnings disappear. The logs now show:
    OK: Root-level SWF loaded:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf
    OK: Policy file accepted: https://192.168.2.5/crossdomain.xml
    OK: Policy file accepted:
    https://192.168.2.5/trunk/socketpolicy.xml
    Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:843 (at 3
    seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not
    cause any problems, but see
    http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files
    for an explanation.
    Warning: [strict] Ignoring policy file with incorrect syntax:
    xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993 by
    requestor from https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf is denied due to
    lack of policy file permissions.
    Which basically says, everything is okay, but you stay out
    anyway.
    PS: I found the XML schema files here:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_02.html
    and the socket policy schema:
    http://www.adobe.com/xml/schemas/PolicyFileSocket.xsd.
    UPDATE: When serving up the policy file on port 843 using the
    example perl script then the socket connection seems to be accepted
    and the connect succeeds. After that flex hangs trying to logon to
    the IMAP server.
