Problem with Cambridge Control Bar

But first, Cambridge is good stuff guys - congrats on getting the new stuff out the door with a ton of fixes.  The '57 samples sound cool and I like the way the eZine told what to download for those of us not using CCC.
Here's a toast for ya'!  
Probably an artifact of working on the Control Bar problems, but now the custom button widget insists on being all the way to the right no matter where it is placed prior to exiting Sonar.

    I can confirm this behaviour.
     
    Anderton
     
    Can you give steps to reproduce?

     
    Method:
    1. Open SONAR - Custom Module appears at right end:
    2. Move Custom Module to preferred slot
    3. Close SONAR
    4. Open SONAR - Custom Module has moved back to right hand end again:
    5. Reposition Custom Module:
    6. Right Click and check Lock Module Order option:
    7. Close SONAR
    8. Open SONAR - Custom Module has moved back to right hand end again
    ...etc
     
    No biggie, more of a mild inconvenience at worse.

    Same problem here...but not just the custom widget. it rearranges everything (back to same order every try).
     
    I tried locking toolbar, same results. tried within a project, both saving and not saving. Also tried with no project loaded.
     
    I also tried by first selecting "all modules visible", and then rearranging. And also with empty bar and inserting one by one and rearranging....same results.
     
    It always goes back to the same original order after restarting Sonar  (32-bit).

    Thanks for doing the detailed recipe Steve.  And I agree that this isn't a huge thing in the Grand Scheme of Things (GSoT).

    Yes, now I see what you're talking about and I was able to confirm. Maybe we'll get a hotfix in a few days

    If out of all the features, fixes, and additions in the update this is the only significant issue people have uncovered so far, I'd say the answer is yes.

    Check post #30 on topic "Cambridge is here" (I can't post URL's).
    You could argue it is less significant if you like (but not insignificant).

    I have the same issue. I made sure that my screenshots were not locked but nothing has helped. Its already been said that its not a big issue and I agree. CW has done a wonderful job that I feel like we're getting spoiled a bit. The system has been stable for the most part and I'm sure that with all the new features that's not easy. CW we're not complaining... we just want more of a good thing :)
         I said in the survey that stability was the most important thing. So lets not forget where we come from. When its all said and done I can make music without leaving my home!!!!

    Let me be more specific :  Did anyone actually try using the Control Bar after changes were made to it ?
     
    Someone might also have tried intalling and using your DimPro programs.
     
    It used to be bad enough that early adopters had to beta test a new version every year and a half, now everyone has to beta test every month.  If I were using Sonar in a professional setting, I'd be scared to death.

    I can confirm this as a problem also tried different start methods i.e. as admin or from the CCC or just as a user happens for every launch

    Thanks for the acknowledgement Ben.  Having one of you folks do a quick note like this is very helpful.  At least it is for me.

    Why has reply #2 of this thread been removed?
     
    It makes my quote in post#3 (now promoted to post #2) look rather ridiculous. Or even that I'd fabricated it.
     
    I don't understand the motive here, anyone care to enlighten me?

    I figured you just kept the quoted quote handy for occasions when such a quote wasn't actually quoted.

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

    Yes - correct here to. The layout always reverts to the "Cambridge way", but it does seem to remember the module sizes I set in Braintree.

    It used to be bad enough that early adopters had to beta test a new version every year and a half, now everyone has to beta test every month.  If I were using Sonar in a professional setting, I'd be scared to death.



    You can update whenever you want - you don't have to update the day it's released - and roll back to a previous version if you have a problem until there's a fix.
     
    If you use SONAR in a professional setting, the Dim Pro sounds do work, it's just that the SFZ files are placed inelegantly but that can be fixed and doesn't impact performance...and I don't see the Control Bar issue as so serious it can't be coped with for a while until a patch happens but if so, just hold off on the update. Given how much stuff has worked properly in the two releases so far, I really don't think they qualify as "beta tests."

    Also ...

    * The hardgrove collection just copies to the default area and does not honour the folder path for rapture in the registry. You need to move it to the multisamples folder manually afterwards (if it is in a different place).

    * Boost 11 appears to be installed on every update is also hard coded and does not honour the existing file path. The version keeps incrementing.

    Seems to me that they need sorting out on the emergency update too.

    Because I tested the control bar without realizing I hadn't finished downloading Cambridge, so I thought it worked. After I realized my error, I removed the post because I didn't want to give the impression I had gotten it working in Cambridge. I then posted later to confirm that I did experience the same bug in Cambridge.

    The great thing about it is that I know Cakewalk will sort this out soon with a follow up emergency fix. It is inevitable there will be bugs.

    I'm going to wait two weeks after every release before upgrading (in fact I might just install one month behind). It really is an excellent way of shifting software if it continues this way and they fix regression bugs rapidly.

    Just to confirm. Put me on the list of the control bar error after Cambridge. 

    A deep chesty bawl echoes from rimrock to rimrock, rolls down the mountain, and fades into the far blackness of the night. It is an outburst of wild defiant sorrow, and of contempt for all the adversities of the world. - Aldo Leopold
