Hi guys I found something else (I bet you're getting sick of hearimng from me!) When I'm using the mini sliders, when I move them a part of the graphic stays where it is while your dragging the mouse and then when you let go it moves to cath the rest of the graphic up

Hi galaa,

This might not be a bug as such. It looks like the redraw area is wrong in the slider. But if you're using the latest supplied sliders with no modifications then I thought they were ok.

Any chance you could mail me a schematic that shows this behaviour so I can check for sure.

Thanks,

And we're certainly not sick of hearing from you - quite the opposite in fact. I'd be very worried if we were getting no feedback at all so keep it coming.

I'm using 9.2(e) and I haven't made any mods to the standard sliders. I'll mail you my schematic now

Thanks galaa, I'm away at the moment. I'll see if I can take a look tomorrow (Sunday).

It may not be the schematic then, I just want to make sure.

Hi galaa,

Thanks for the schematic. It looks like it is a schematic error, but not really your fault. The mini-slider has a fixed redraw area that doesn't adjust if you move the component parts around. I think you must have resized your click and drum sliders and moved the GUI elements into the centre. Because the Redraw Area in the V Slider Control uses a fixed area it only refreshes part of the slider.

I need to update the mini-slider so that it's a bit more flexible. As a quick fix, just replace the click and drum sliders with the ones from the toolbox and you'll be fine.

Cheers malc. I can't remember whether I did resize them or not, its possible

    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.
