time stretching oddity; new bug?

Post by EMRR »

Yesterday I tried manually stretching a soundbite to a shorter duration, and it would just disappear. I tried moving other layers back to see if ti was under another soundbite, no luck. Didn't appear on the soundbites list as a stretched soundbite (I think they show up that way?). Using 'scale time' did the same thing. If I stretched longer versus shorter, it was still there, but nonsensical in appearance. This is the first stretch I've tried since moving to 11.31. I need to try it again on another session. Anyone seem similar? Turned it off, turned it back on.....

Just did a couple tests here with mono & stereo tracks and I'm not seeing that here.

I did it with grid snap off, FWIW.

Ok, I couldn't see where it was going yesterday, just tried again.

Time stretch or ‘scale time’ to a shorter increment on a soundbite that’s not at it’s original timestamp makes the soundbite disappear, other than what looks like a 1 sample line that is only visible at certain zoom levels. Stretch or scale longer gives non-sensical result.  ‘Set user timestamp’ doesn’t address the problem. Other soundbites stretch as expected.  I tried deleting the analysis files, made no change.  I can't replicate it in other DP sessions.   

There is another graphics bug(?) I was seeing shortly before this happened, pops up occasionally, I wonder if it’s related. Sometimes if I move the edge of a soundbite, another copy appears underneath the one I’ve moved. I have to start deleting layers of copies to get it back to a single soundbite. I’ve seen this every now and then since I moved to DP11. This sessions was built from a template that I built from scratch in DP11, it wasn’t transitioned from an earlier DP.

Does it make any difference if you drag the upper right corner rather than the upper left? (Upper right is my default behavior).
