Just realized that the biggest issue (for me) isn't listed in post #1 (my fault):

Noted... Sorry will take a look thanks.

Cross track Take Lanes selection issue (screen jumping). Confirmed by Cake and some workarounds in thread...

Cheers.

I think this one can be easily confirmed.

It's about the difference in functionality between the browser and right clicking in a bin, when using plugin layouts.

Sustain pedal events being ignored, also note off events being ignored. Worse with Ivory Pianos - Confirmed by Cakewalk as likely related problems. Other users reproduced this also.

This is a show stopper bug for me. Back to 8.5 until it's fixed.

Sometimes drag selecting tracks in track pane doesn't select certain tracks. This is worse with collapsed folders, but has been confirmed and reproduced by Cakewalk in an X3 template with no collapsed folders.

Can't use Contorl-F4 in key bindings successfully. If a window is open, it instead closes the window. This has been confirmed and reproduced by Cakewalk.

CTRL+F4 used to be the easiest way to close any window in Sonar 4.0.2 and probably many other older versions.
Example: quickly open an event view to check something ( ALT+V+E )
Quickly close that same window after seeing what I needed to see ( CTRL+F4 )

I suspect, ( haven't tested it ) that if you have a floating window open in X3
then CTRL+F4 will close it. So good. That's how it's always been. I hope it stays that way.

I can't speak for any hive mind, but I think five free updates is pretty good going, value-for-money wise. And I'd be surprised if there was one this late in the cycle; they usually release in Autumn / Winter.

fair enough, though i see the "free updates" as "free bugfixes" at least as far as the x-series goes
(eta)so was that a x3f or x4?

I'm concerned about the new owners of Cakewalk also. It seems to me there are some serious bugs left unfixed. Sadly I can't use X3, because of a show stopper bug for me that I posted here. If there is no X3F, I may decide to jump ship and go to a new program. I've already been burned once by X1. I couldn't use it because of bugs.
 
I've used Cakewalk products since the DOS days and there was only 1 version, Cakewalk Pro Audio 7 that almost no one could use and Cakewalk bent over backwards to make that one right. Let's hope the new owners will be as responsible.

No Steve it hasn't always been that way. Yes likely you're right that it was the default operation of Contorl-F4, but in every single version of Sonar except X3, I've been able to use key bindings to set my own shortcut keys, including Control-F4. You're also right Control-F4 is closing a floating window open in X3.
 
Alt-F4 is also a default way of closing windows in Cakewalk products, I've left that one as is. Like you, I really like a quick way of closing a window, for me Alt-F4 is just fine. There's no reason why a user shouldn't be able to reprogram any shortcut key combination using key bindings. Contorl-F4 is the only shortcut that can't be reprogrammed by key bindings. If a floating window is open, it'll close it no matter what the key binding is. This has been confirmed by Cakewalk as a bug.
