Effects Window Remains - Why?

Post by Babz »

If I create an instrument track and assign a VI to it (or an audio track with an effect) and then I delete the track, a little Effects window remains behind. I then have to do an extra mouse click to close that window. Why? Why doesn't it go away when I delete the track?

Thanks,
Babz

Is the preference for plug in floating on or off (bottom of this image)? Just curious...

Maybe because the Effects window is generic. It has drop down menus that let you select a track, an insert, and an effect. You can have multiple instances of it open, but none of them are hard linked to a specific track, insert or effect.
