I had that happen once when sonar first came out and it stumped me for almost 20 minutes.
that hasn't happen again since.
I do find it amusing however when users complain of sonars new automation features being broken until they find out its a feature  :)

I haven't looked at Offset Mode since upgrading from Sonar 7. I presume that it has not changed and is still indicated by not-very-prominent little "+" sign. Certainly something "rude" would help.
 
I also believe that Offset Mode would be more useful if it was per track rather than for the whole project.

I have more problems with "Q", because it's right next to "W". More than once I've selected all tracks and hit rewind in preparation for an export, and accidentally muted every clip in the project. No big deal, jut hit Q again - unless you already had a few muted clips!

Kev999, I don't think there's any problem with the implementation as long as you intend to use it. It's kinda like routing a heap of tracks to a bus and lowering the fader on the bus.
 
Personally, I would like a red flag warning when I switch to the mode so I don't wind up in it unintentionally.
 
I'm not sure the best way to let me know which items have been modified using the offset mode. Perhaps when I touch the control it turns red? When I touch a related envelope?
 
I don't know. I used it correctly in the last couple of weeks and it is useful.

My problem seems to be with "E"
 
I go to hit "R", then "ctrl+Z" (a common occurrence) enough times, then I wonder why everything sounds so different.  It took me ages to suss..
 
I'm not alone, I feel.

I have the same issue with Q except it's set to Quantize here.

I think a more useful command should be assigned to "O" by default. "Online | User's Forum" for instance.

I guess I will have to bug up key binding - I have the 'O' key set to: "Fetch me grog, woman!", but it doesn't seem to work on Windows 8.  I suppose I can just forget about it, as after a night of trying to get it to work, she left.  (the ultimate performance enhancement, perhaps?)

LOL
 
You have to hit the Alt Grovel key as a modifier to get that to work Bob

Grog! I think the last time I heard that word was from the mouth of Lizzie Birdsworth (although to be fair I did watch an episode of Prisoner last week on YouTube)
