| Summary | 0004142: Layering does not work properly, esp. with combine, lower to bottom & stacked/overlaid | ||||
| Description | Hi, this is kind of complicated. It seems like - Consolidate region works as expected - combine does something else (i.e. the result is not what you heard before, it gets the layering wrong somehow) - Layering -> "Lower to bottom" does only work in stacked view, not in overlayed - and some weird other things where "overlaid" and "stacked" behave differently but which I don't understand / can reproduce right now. This all happens in edit mode "most recently added is higher". I consider this a "major" bug since it's dangerous if you can't rely on the region layering. I hope I can provide you with some more details and a sample session tonight. | ||||

First scenario: You have 2 regions overlapping each other (creating a short crossfade) in overlayed layer track mode. Since the 2nd was recorded later, it is layered above the first one (first/second refers to the time line), so you won't hear parts of the first region. Now try to raise the first region via the region menu -> layering -> raise or raise to top. Neither works. If you switch to "stacked" layers via the track menu, using -> layering -> raise to top works, but it is not represented graphically, i.e. the first region is still underneath the second but is played now. Right click the track, and voila, the regions switch graphically to what they should look like (first being above). If you try the same with the second region (try "lower" and "lower to bottom"), it's the same, just vice versa. |

Second scenario: Start with the same 2 regions where the later (second) region is higher than the first one, so you won't hear everything of the first region. "Combine" them, maybe it will work - I had some tests where I heard the first but not the second region during the formerly overlapped part, which is wrong - but then undo the action, and the layering will graphically show the first region to be higher, even if you still hear the correct layering (the secong being higher), but if you then move the first region a but, the layering will change (which is not wanted in recently added is higher mode). It's strange, I know ;) |

|
Note: Just play a bit around with 2 or 3 overlapping regions and combine/uncombine it, it is very strange what happens: Sometimes it works, sometimes uncombine alters the layering, sometimes the graphical and audible layering differ (in overlaid mode), and stacked mode draws an uncombining action somewhere above the track into nowhere. Going to bed now, maybe it's just ghosts. |

The layering code has been change significantly in SVN 11088. It'd be great if you could test and open new bugs for anything that still doesn't work. Thanks! |
