Anyone else have this Problem with handles? Solved I THINK

Hmmm - sounds like a glitch.  With "Show Controller Handles" checked, they should be there.

I'm actually here to tell you that even though you want those always visible, I want you to know why I go out of my way to make sure they are never on:

--With the handles off, and the Grid off, by holding CTRL while sweeping through the handle-less data, you can do editing much more smoothly and quickly.  You just can't do the same thing with handles on.

There's one annoying exception to my handle-less approach - If you're editing CC64 data, with the handles off, you can't see the sustain Off events - you need handles turned on to see those, unfortunately.

You need an answer to your question, sorry I don't have one, but I wanted to pass on some info so you might be encouraged to try out what I'm talking about.  I truly find editing much faster and easier with those usually off.

Not sure what you mean by handles but I have noticed depending on the Zoom level, I can have notes disappear. If I drag the cursor back and forth, sometimes I can even make them come and go.  However they are not gone, the notes still play correctly. Zooming in or out seems to clear it back up.

He's talking about the way controller data is displayed in the controller panes.  When you have the "display handles" option selected, each bit of data has a little flag-handle on its top.  The idea is you grab the handle and push it up or down to change its value.  But if you have handles off, you get just vertical lines without handles on top - and I find those much faster and easier to work with.  As in my post, grid off, hold CTRL down, and you can chop the heads off of those vertical lines, or sweep through and change a big bunch as you go - really easy to do MIDI editing without the handles displayed.
