The chm and web help we update constantly, the pdf/reference guide we do not update as frequently.
 
This raises a great question though - do folks prefer the pdf over the chm? We have been under the impression that many just copy the pdf to their kindle or print it out as a sort of deep reference guide not something they use frequently like the chm. If the pdf is getting heavier use please create a thread in this forum (Feature and Ideas) so we can hear from others about it and we can look into keeping it more current. 



I copy the PDF to my kindle and "study" when I'm not at the computer. I would like the PDF to always reflect the current software.

For me the CCC window is always chopped at the right.  I don't think I am missing anything too important, but it is impossible to see the entire window.  This needs to be fixed.

 
It sounds like either your screen resolution is unsupported or you have DPI scaling cranked up. C3 works with the minimum supported resolution of SONAR which is 1280x800.
 
 
You have mentioned giving full control over file placement.  That needs to include the ability to correct the situation that many of us have now where our C drive has lots of data that we really wanted to have on other drives.  



You will have a few options in this situation:
  • Starting with 1.1 you will be able to change the 'Cakewalk Content' path in C3, this is passed to all of our installers that install content.
  • Starting with 1.1 you will also have an option to always run the installers in verbose mode which will allow you to customize any unique paths specific to that application.

The CCC should support a move mode or else enable a "reinstall" feature that removes the old stuff and installs where we really want it, but without losing our other settings.

 
While there won't be a move mode, it is possible to uninstall and reinstall which would be the best course of action. The uninstallers also prompt you if you'd like to remove shared utilities and plugins that are used by multiple Cakewalk products. It's kind of hard for C3 to make this decision for a user, and if we did some group of folks would probably end up with the opposite of what they want and this is an option that I think is best left in the hands of the user.

Thanks, but please create a new thread for this topic since this one is about C3. Our documentation team isn't keeping an eye on this one.

Sorry.  That's the hazard of viewing on the phone.  It's very easy to overlook things.

If I rely on Cakewalk I will always have the latest installation for download but not an earlier download.

Mike,
FYI - CCC keeps all the old copies of downloads - in case you want to "revert" to an older version...


Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I keep all the download file as you say. What I mean is that because Cakewalk only provide the most recent installer I can't rely on them for all the backlog of files, hence I keep them all in the CCC download folder.

my only two issues with command center...the biggest one is there should be some type of progress bar when downloads are in progress

 
hmm that sounds like something weird might be going on. There is an orange progress bar across the bottom that updates % downloaded while it's downloading. If you're not seeing this I'd encourage you to either contact our support folks or create a problem report.


I bet you a fiver he's seeing the end part of the process when temp files are being deleted and files are being moved to another drive. The other condition is that the download folder is on another drive. Progress bar just sits there.

Downloading the Foxboro DP update. It is taking a long time. Way more than two hours when finished.
I want to see the size of each update listed on the description window so I can decide which of the updates I will do when.
 
And in the case of DP, I want to choose separately any included content.
