Console view SOLVED w/ caveat...

I haven't used screensets yet, but don't you have to save a modified screenset if you want it to stay that way?

Yes, John that's correct. But this is in the same project. I saved it by unlocking/relocking it. I then copied it to # 0 as well. If I change to any other preset, even the copy of this one, the console top drops, partially covering the trim control. Maybe FBB can shed some light. he's pretty screenset saavy. The other side of this is that I can save the project with the console height correct. When I re-open it, the top has dropped. Kinda weird and annoying.

Same thing happens to me - it's been happening for years, for several versions.  I contacted Cakewalk support about it years ago - they couldn't figure it out, so I just dropped it. 

When you say you unlocking and locking are you making the changes when it's locked? If so the changes won't stick, they only stick when unlocked.

That looks to me like you have the CV undocked from the multidock, is that the case? I rarely use it that way but I do see that behaviour as well if I do, in the multidock I don't.

Sounds like that might be the issue.

Any particular reason that you don't use the multidock? There's not much difference between the CV in a full screen multidock and it in a fullscreen floating window. Except the D and shift D shortcuts don't work on the floating version and it's just the one view as opposed to mulitiple views in the same space.

Here is the CV docked on my system *





and the same CV floating * .............

I work a fair bit from the view I have in the pics for certain things. I pretty much only use track, console, busses, markers, and tempo views - all full height. That's pretty much it. So screen sets are perfect. When I'm going through them often, I have a AlphaTrack setup I load, as I work from it alot. So, I really don't need the multidock at all. For me, it's just an irritation. Say, if I move a plug and it grabs it. I'll get by this way, as it is minor. Thanks for looking into it, Karl - you're waaay sonar smart and always helpful.

I found out why the top of console was moving.  For me, if i have the bottom of the console all the way down, i can save it and the top moves. if i lift it just a touch off the bottom and save it, it stays.  Caveat - I have the #1 and #0(10) set identically (duplicated to be sure). If I toggle between these two, the top of console drops down and partially covers the trim knobs. If i toggle betwwen another screenset and #1 or #0(10), it works flawlessly. I.E. - when 'lock' isn't 'lock'... I'm pretty happy with what I have now. Thanks much for the asist(s)!

That's not what I meant, dxp. You have to grab the console and pull it up just off the bottom of the X2 window.  Not even enough that it draws my eye to it, but it makes this view work for me now.
