Strange, sorry I cant help more.

yeah between thisa one and they key bindings for snap settings and a handful of other stuff the cw problem reporter is bound to be very unhappy with me.  ;)  it's kinda funny because i'm not experiencing ANY of the big problems that people with WAY better systems than mine are experiencing. i mean i was even running a project with prochannel modules and lp64 mastering modules with automation and about a dozen instances of rapture and dim pro set to multitimbral and no crashey bad face (like in X1).  instead i get these annoying little ones. how funny is that???

This is what I got in response to my bug report from Cakewalk:

Thank you for your report.
This is exactly as intended. The PRV Snap Settings override the Global Snap Settings. If Global Snap is completely disabled, then the PRV Snap is as well. This is why the graphic for PRV Specific Snap changes colors and is not able to be altered when Global Snap is disabled. This is explained in more detail here: http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/kb/reader.aspx/2007013258

Now, I still think it's bad design to have a unique Snap option that only works if the other Snap option is also on, but again...what can you do. They seem to think it makes sense.

See that's just silly because I don't want to override the global snap settings, I want it follow the global snap settings. I've never used the prv snap because to me it's pointless and just another thing to keep track of.  if it's intended then why does it partially work?? lol.

this is the response i got...
