Automation in Sequencer: Highlight current Gridline when dragging Node around #937

Open Lykdraft opened 7 years ago

Lykdraft commented 7 years ago

Wonder if it is possible to highlight the current gridline position when dragging an automation node around. Would be a bit easier to get the correct spots on the first try. (In the sequencer, when automation is assigned to a sequencer track...)

I thought I understood this last time I looked, but now I'm not sure. Do you mean highlight gridline in the editor while dragging automation node in the editor? Or do you mean the opposite?

Lykdraft commented 7 years ago

I mean the Grid that shows up in the sequence track editor which only shows up when you start to drag an automation node around. Otherwise its hidden...

When dragging a node around it is (depending on color scheme?) hard to see exactly the correct spot on the grid to drag it to.

Because the grid shows up anyways when you start dragging nodes around it would be handy to highlight the current single grid line where the node is dragged to.

When the gridline where the node is currently dragged on gets highlighted, you'll be much more able to see immediately at which bar/beat position you are on the grid. Especially when you have multiple track lanes in the sequencer.

I see some thin blue lines on the block headers, but they seem stuck at bar grid. It also seem more like a bug. :-) I'm not sure if this was intentional actually. But that's what you talk about right?

yes, these thin blue lines. They act as a guide, right? And yes, they only show Bar Grid. When you go down in resolution to Beats, they don't follow the resolution. But these are the ones that I meant, yes. :)

I think this can be closed as well now? As far as I can see there is no additional grid at all showing up anymore when moving stuff around and I am not missing it. (Looks cleaner that way. Did you get rid of it or is there an option somewhere to turn it on/off?)
