'Clash' between envelope and fade at DVinfo.net

Renton Maclachlan · April 8th, 2017, 05:17 PM

I think I mentioned this before, but in case someone from Magix is watching who can do something about it, or someone else knows a way around this, I'll mention it again.

I have a composite envelope nearly right at the top of a track which I have split. However I then want to put a fade at the split. Soooo....I try to raise the fade symbol by hovering around where it is activated but it never comes up...because...there seems to be a clash between the fade and the composite envelope which at this point are both at the same place.

My 'work around' solution is to put a handle on the CE and drag it lower...which then frees the fade up to be activated. Once I have the fade in place I then delete the CE handle.

I seems to me that this 'clash' could be overcome by the fade not only being activated by hovering, but also by using a keyboard key in conjunction with hovering, which would counteract/overcome the influence of the CE.

Such a solution doesn't already exist does it? Any other options?

Working here - just checked. I've got that QUADRANT Icon on the Fade.

Some times it may appear, but mostly not. The CE is not right at the very top but just fractionally down from the top, about where you normally get the fade symbol.

I can get the drag symbol but not normally the fade one... the drag one occurs lower in the track...
