bugs or features?

Post by Rene »

Hi!

I've found a few interesting "features" and have some requests for new ones: ;)

Feature 1) Active composition is discarded when the open dialog is canceled
  1. open a composition and add some videos
  2. try to save the composition (in the best case a composition you've customized/edited at least 30min. without saving)
  3. Click on "Composition" in the menu panel
  4. Try to click "Save" (not the shortcut), but then accidentally click on "Open" (it's next to "Save")
  5. Click "Cancel" at the Open Composition dialogue
  6. Is your composition still there? (mine was not!)


Feature 2) Press the A button next to the A-B fader and have again a fade from B to A (also vice versa)
  1. press the A button next to the A-B fader once (the fader should transition to the left (A))
  2. press the A button again
  3. press the A button once again, and the fader jumps back to B and immediately fades to A
  • It's a nice feature, but it should be possible to turn it off ;-)

    Also some requests:
    *) can you add a knob to adjust the time a A-B transition takes. (maybe also at BPM basis)
    *) add more presets (pls. see pictures) - I think the first picture shows the currently implemented transition style!?

Also the header (X-button, B-button, M-slider, Composition-button,Column1-button, Column2-button, etc.) of the video matrix/layers scrolls away when I scroll the layers down.

Resetting parameters like speed, scale, x/y position via MIDI


Make it possible to define a default for each effect. (not a preset) - and it should be possible to reset an effect to its default via MIDI/keyboard

At some effects (for example Add Subtract) the "Reset to default" in the preset dropdown menu (re)sets the blend mode to "None"

And please, can you make the height of the video layers panel (upper half) and the output/monitor, Properties/effects, Files/Composition/Effects/Sources panel (lower half) customizable! :) e.g. video layers 20% of total height, FX 80% of total height
