X1b Essential - issues with snap in PRV

I updated Sonar X1a to X1b and have noticed that the snap settings in the piano roll view apparently have no effect. In the past I was able to snap the length of notes exactly, but can no longer do this.

Snap in the track view for clips, however, is working great.

Can anyone offer any advice on what to do (ini file setting or similar).

X1a, while not perfect in this regard was more usuable than it is in X1b.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Gary.

Cheers,
Gary.

Current configuration:
Core i3 Laptop / 8GB RAM; Sonar Platinum (replaced with REAPER); Roland Quad Capture interface; Alesis Micron; Roland XP30; Akai Mini MPK; Akai S2000

    In the SNAP section of the Control Bar, there are four icons at the bottom.
    Turning on the first one (Midi Landmarks) should get it working for you.  I don't remember how these defaulted on X1 and X1a, but I also lost my snap setting when I upgraded. Made me panic for a minute or so.

    You may also want to check your "magnetic strength" setting. Setting it to off will give you the most predictable results.

    Thanks for that, coda!

    Enabling the snap to MIDI landmarks in the PRV fixed the problem.

    Cheers,
    Gary.
