Yeah... I think it's fairly safe to say it's universal (or close enough).   I mean, I tend to see very few of the issues most run into, consistently.   But I am seeing the Custom module over on the right even though I keep it near the middle.   No big deal, really, but it's there.  Here's hoping we see something timely like the fix they made for monthly installments.

Yes, it appears to be the case. The OP hit on a bug.

So one week or two of cakewalk hate (sorry that's OTT people have been cool) and life will be back to normal. What a refreshing change (usually you would have to wait six years).

Here's the test now on seeing what is an important regression bug (walks away) as there are several... (Don't take it badly take it is as a test). Actions folks not words. Ends of conversation we await results. And we are on your side and know you are up to the job.

Yup! Control bar keeps reverting to default configuration.

It's not reverting to default for me, but it is forcing everything to an order that is not the one that I set on each instantiation of Sonar.

Just out of interest, is anyone who happens to be browsing this thread not seeing this behaviour?
 
No doubt it would be extremely important for Cakewalk to know that it's not a 'universal' bug as we have at least one confirmation that 'custom Control bar was left alone by the Cambridge install'.
 
Mind you, as far as I'm concerned, this is nothing more than a very minor inconvenience which could wait until next month's 'D' update for a fix now it's on their radar.

Re: Problem with Cambridge Control Bar 2015/03/29 11:06:31 (permalink)
I just ran the Cambridge update and can confirm the Control Bar reset as well. I'd be curious why some wouldn't experience this. So far that's all I have to report. As far as it being a minor issue, maybe, but I reply on where my modules are for my work flow. Isn't that the purpose of the new control bar? Otherwise what's the point of being able to arrange the modules. Sonar already looks pretty. So maybe not so minor.

Hi Steve...

It appears we all have this problem... I think some people are simply accepting it...?

For me its a PITA as I must look around to find things every time... I'm far to used to my own setup even high it has changed a bit with SPlat... My modules have been in basically the same locations since X1...

I hope they fix this one quickly.... Waiting another month for it will be painful...

Hmmm... yes, I missed that. But then John also wrote: "Yes, it appears to be the case. The OP hit on a bug." in post #33 of this thread. John's not inclined to acknowledge bugs that he can't reproduce himself. But maybe he's just acknowledging that it's "near universal".

I agree, John is certainly one of the most reliable and trustworthy forum users when it comes to identifying and then notifying others about any problems in SONAR.

I see the confusion. I'm sorry to have contributed to it. What I was referring to in the referenced post was the resetting of the Control Bar after install of Braintree. This reset would put any custom changes one had made to it  back to the default and wiped out any custom buttons on the custom control module. What that means is it would ignore all custom configurations and revert it back to the default state.   
 
This is not the same as the placing of the custom control module at the far right which this thread is about. 
 
I hope this clears up the confusion.

I agree that this is not really minor. It really slows down the workflow.

No, wait, false alarm - John had mistakenly started up Pro Audio 9 instead.

Just out of interest, do we know yet if this is a universal problem with Cambridge or is it just affecting some users?

Hi Steve, I just had a quick test and on my laptop, the order presists if you do not exit Sonar completely. Closing and opening the project brings the order back as it was when the file was closed.
 
Exiting Sonar completely and relaunching causes the Custom Module to go back to the right

It is minor. Nor do I see how work flow is slowed down.

If you normally keep the custom buttons in the center, workflow is slowed by having to move the mouse further out and back to click a button - I'm smiling pretty big as I type this.  As I said earlier, in TGSoT, this one isn't big.
 
It did, however, slap me in the face the first time I started Cambridge

That is the way I see it. It should be fixed, no question but I fail to see it as show stopping or a true work flow slow down. From what I understand CW is aware of it and the first step toward a fix is awareness.

I'm glad to hear a fix is soon to be hoped for.

I somehow felt sure the Bakers would...

I must say again though that I do find it a workflow slowdown as I spend more time searching (visually) for the desired info and switches... I guess I do thus more often than some? ;-)

Thanks John...

If it were that simple?

But it seems to me that it resets the entire control bar, not just that one module... Or that's how it seemed when I was last in front of it...?

I'm certain it scrambled them all immediately after the install... And I could have sworn it went back to that arrangement next time I opened it as well...

You're absolutely right if it's only the single module... I will verify that here in a few hours...

Thanks John...

One of the things I commented on when Cambridge was released was the CB was left alone when I installed it. Now I wonder if the way I start Sonar Platinum is having an impact on this. I use a quick start icon on my task bar to start it. I don't use C3 at all for that.

Same here, keni, mine is scrambled so, I have to search for anything I want to use. Of course I could re-order everything to where I want it each time I open Platinum but.... PITA.

Mine is scrambled to. None of it is situated the way I had it. Modules are in different places.
