Selecting clips in folder

I have.
Now I use lasso tool to select clips. Then I'll group them.

This is a bug or feature, depending on the point of view.
Old behaviour was better.

Billy, I don't think you understand what I was saying... For instance, I record 8 tracks of drums and they all reside in a drum track folder. It used to be that I could simply click on the track folder section above my 8 drum tracks and it would select all of the clips in the tracks directly below it. It doesn't do that any more.  It's very inconvenient to have to ctrl click each drum track or even lasso them...

I tried that.., I'll give it another go.

s in that area; but I've also seen it work as I said, but making sure you move your mouse to the lower part of the 'folder' track view whatever we call it (ie, the area that would select ALL the clips in the folder, ).

jaydrake: same thing is happening to me, and I agree, ba-midi's solution doesn't work in my system: if I click on the"folded" clips (the solid bars that represent your clip content in the folder, they call it Composite Clip ) it selects the upper track, when I start to move the folder, transparency shows all tracks moving, but when I release the mouse(click) all tracks goes back to original position and just 1st track on folder stays in the new position. So I just moved one track Is this happening to you?

the only way to move my whole drum folder altogether is by:
1-Selecting a range with smart tool on the upper part of the Composite Clip so you have the select cursor i-beam
2-sliding it (allways smart tool)  moving smart tool to the lower part of the Composite Clip

but if you want to work on a bunch of clips inside the folder (not a time selection) this doesn't work.


this is a bug.

Mind:
Say you have a drum folder like I have (8 tracks) I have an intro (8 bars in the Composite Clip), then 10 sec silence (blank in the Composite Clip) and the drums again for 1st verse. If I select-move using the above method, the first section (intro), I can move just 1st track on folder (BD), but if I do the same procedure with second section, after the 10 sec silence (verse), I'm able to move track2 (SD) but track1 BD remains in its original place (???!!!)

Weird

Also: I have a little editing on my drum track, 1 sec clip that I moved with previous Sonar 6 vers to fix a drummer timing problem, so it's a tiny clip overlapping (crossfade) previous and next clip, classic editing, and this is offcourse repeated on evry track on that drum folder. In Sonar 6, if I wanted to move all those clips, I couldn't click on the Composite Clip to select them, cause if I did, i selected the previos and next clips (cause they're overlapping). I was forced to select every clip on everytrack on the folder (CTRL Click) , very annoying.
Now on X1, I can select them neither, as if O click on that tiny edited section in the Composite Clip, it does..nothing, no selection. So I still have to select every clip on everytrack on the folder (CTRL Click).

At least THAT didn't change!
