So you are paused/stopped at bar 43.
Launch the PRV.

To get at bar 43---Hit the space bar in quick succession to start-n-stop the machine--you now at bar 43.

I for one HATE the changes to the PRV mode behavior.  Not only did I notice this but also if you edit something in PRV, the now time auto scroll stops working and you have to do a right click in the timeline to get the scroll working again (still opening the PRV with a CNTL 5 command).

Jim
That should only happen during playback. If you edit when playback is stopped, scrolling is unaffected.

Kevo,

Is that quick space bar manuever documented or did you just happen to stumble upon this technique?

I tried the same (d-clicking below clip select/lower half) and no matter what measure I'm at in the track view it takes me to bar 1.   

Problem also occurs when pressing the D key to snap back to a tabbed PRV view.  Until you hit play.  Then D-key will go to Now Time measure in PRV.

When you double-click a clip, make sure you do it in the bottom half (or underneath the header) of the clip (where the mouse cursor looks like an I ). That way your double-click will not only open the PRV, but it will also move the Now time so that the PRV opens in the correct location.

Scott
Sorry to report that this does not work.

It only works for the first time a clip is opened in the PRV.  If the same clip in TV is double-clicked it opens PRV to measure 2 consistent behavior every time for me.

This is one of the bugs that really bugs me about Sonar X2 and hope it is fixed in the first update.

Hmmm... strange. It's working here for me. As long as I click in the correct place on the clip, the PRV opens to the same spot that I clicked. Not sure what's going on with your setup...


I'm not saying that you're not experiencing a bug... you could be. But I'm not seeing it here.

Thanks for the tip.  


Cakewalk, I really hope this work around is not a "feature" and will be fixed soon.  shouldn't have to do this every time.

Ah ha... I see the problem now. What I mentioned earlier works if you double-click on a different clip. When you double-click again on the original clip, the PRV scrolls back to the beginning of the clip. Yeah, looks like a bug.

The workaround Simpleman posted works, but hopefully we'll get a bug fix for this.

Another workaround is to close the PRV after you're done editing the clip. That seems to work too, but we definitely shouldn't have to do that.

Time to fill out a bug report everyone - the more hits Cakewalk get regarding a specific bug, the more chance there is of it getting fixed!
