| Summary | 0006160: Can't remove custom click sound | ||||
| Description | Once I've set a sound file as a custom click, it's not always impossible to reset it back to nothing to use the default click sound if the sound file doesn't exist. It's possible to clear the fields in the preferences, but they come back at the next startup of ardour, and an error about being unable to find the files appears in the log window. | ||||

the trick is to use the word "default". i should fix this. |
|
|
Well, entering 'default' into the 'Click audio file:' entry gets me "[WARNING]: cannot open click soundfile default (System error.)", so I'm obviously still missing part of the trick. It looks to me as if the problem is that _click_path_entry just won't allow its value to be empty. |
|
|
This is still an issue with nightly build 4.2.25 on linux. Perhaps we should add a checkbox sort of like: Use default click: [ ] Click audio file: [/path/to/click ] [Browse] Click emphasis audio file: [path/to/click_emphasis] [Browse] etc and then only set the path entries and file browser buttons sensitive when the checkbox is unticked. |

It should not be an issue to reset the click sound to the default as of commit b8da99b5 please confirm if you can. Thanks. |

Yes, seems to work. Thanks! I do find the behaviour of 'Use default Click' a bit confusing now: if 'Use default Click' is on, I'd expect turning it off to do something more than just enabling the custom click entry fields; also, if it's off and I have set a custom click sound, and I then tick it on and off again, I'd expect it not to wipe out the custom click sound I've chosen. I don't have any better suggestions of how it ought to work, though, so this really is just nit-picking. |

I agree it should keep the paths entered in the path entries when the default click is enabled so that you can change between two sets of click sounds easily. That will require a bit more work though. |
|
|
Closing, since it is now implemented. I might take a shot at improving the behaviour some time, but it's perfectly workable for the moment. |
