if I drag a bitmap knob in a module that has more than one knob the bitmap is always only applied to the first knob how can I change the other ones??

for example if the module has 1 drop down menu 2 knob the bitmap goes over the drop down menu instead of replacing the knob

Right click the module and select Edit Front Panel, then move the position of the graphics to where ever you want.

No you currently cannot set the grid to any other sizes as far as i know, you can however hold Ctrl (i think) when something is selected and it will move it just a bit and not a whole grid square.

That's right, hold CTRL and use the cursor keys to nudge by 1 pixel at a time. You can also go even finer than that. SynthMaker uses a sub-pixel coordinate system for module front panels (coordinates are floats not ints). If you zoom in and hold both CTRL and SHIFT you can use the cursor keys to move by fractions of a pixel.

Note that obvioulsy there is no resolution finer than one pixel but with rendering techniques you can get that kind of effect.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
