Delete key no longer works?
I just updated to the latest version of Sonar and the delete key on my keyboard no longer deletes a highlighted clip in Sonar. Am I missing anything?

You may have a lens that has limited keybindings as a feature operative.

can you both share some details ? This might help us narrow down some similarity's between systems

The Fix is: Preferences / Keyboard shortcuts / use Locate Key / press delete on keyboard/ then choose Delete on drop down menu. Then apply. For some strange reason this keyboard shortcut was removed with the latest update. Simple fix

It has to be system specific because I still have full control of my Delete key. There were a few others who also complained of losing the "M" key (Marker shortcut). That's why I was asking about sharing some details. It may help others as well as Cakewalk narrow down a problem.

I posted this on the Problems section, with little response. Now it appears it's happened to at least three of us. Yes, the cure is to re-bind it - even though in the key bindings window it says it says it IS bound. I also had the same with "I" for Inspector. "M" was ok. I would add that I'm not a 'system tinkerer' - my W10 64 bit system has been unchanged for months, nay, years except for moving from W7 to W10, and the only variables in my case are W10 updates and Sonar updates. Cakewalk - can you take note please? I don't think a blip like this should be taken lightly. Could be an indication of something more serious festering away in the code? I'm a bit peeved that we often see pledges by CW to concentrate for the time being on fixing things, only to find a new cockup appears which itself needs fixing in a later release.

Is anyone that is having the missing key bindings using the new Synth Rack? @craigr68 reported in Problem Reports that Shift+A would not open the Automation Lanes ( http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3525324). I was able to confirm it in one of my projects, but could not reproduce it in a new project. Since the 2016.11 update, the Up and Down arrow keys no longer worked to navigate between tracks in one of my projects. I discovered the arrow keys were navigating the new Synth Rack docked to the Right even though it was not focused. I closed the Synth Rack and the arrow keys began functioning as expected. Closing or docking the Synth Rack in a different location seemed to workaround the problem for both @craigr68 and myself. YMMV. Unfortunately, I have not been able to develop a fully reproducible recipe to confirm this behavior. Hope this helps somebody, -- Ron

I found the same happening here. Delete key wouldn't work to delete part of a clip - worked in Word, so I knew the system was ok. Went back to Sonar - still didn't work, but opened and closed the Synth Rack and the delete key was then fine. It does seem to have something to do with the Synth Rack but haven't done enough investigation to narrow it down further than that.

Had this happen to me for the first time yesterday. Tried to delete a clip, but nothing happened when pressing the DEL key. Restarted Sonar, and everything was fine.

Same issue for me, as well. I normally have my Synth Rack floating on my 3rd monitor, but when I re-open a project, Sonar doesn't remember that and parks the Synth rack in the main screen next to track view. As long as it remains there, the delete won't work in Track View. As soon as I grab the Synth rack and drag it to it's appointed place on the other monitor, Delete works in Track View. No key binding adjustment required.
For whatever reason, however, I did have to re-bind the "F" key to "Resize All Tracks". Even though it was showing as being bound to that command, it wasn't working until I manually re-did the binding. Kind of annoying...

I just installed the 2016.12 update and I'm now seeing the 'no delete' behavior too. Also the I for inspector shortcut works when it feels like it. Strange indeed - i'll try some of the suggestions posted to see if I can sort this.

OK I found a fix.............
The issue only happens for me when I have a lens selected (ie any other but 'none') and the Synth Rack is docked at the top of the browser. The delete key and I keyboard shortcut don't work.
If I undock the synth rack from the browser, move it to the bottom of the browser, or select 'none' as my lens, everything works as it should. In my case I had my custom lens set with the synth rack docked on top of the browser. I've just moved it to the bottom and re-saved my lens. Quirky, yes, but fixed for now. HTH.

For me, delete key is not working to delete clips in track view, but only if the synth rack is docked on top. Unfortunately, the synth rack is docking itself at the top when saving files and the browser is collapsed, which I have reported as CWBRN-64615.

Fix for me: Re-bind Delete key in preferences and save lens. Appears to be lens-related. I did this and now my delete key works all the time again using my main lens. Not sure if you'd need to do this with all lenses.
