godman Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I'm in Pixel editor and when I play a sequence the song timing does not move with the sequence? I'm at a fixed timing grid of 0.05 and I'm seeing 0.01 thru 0.10 on my timeline but after the song passes the.10 second mark the song keeps playing but the timeline doesn't move? It's the same as when I drag my mouse from the beginning to the end on one of the props the timeline doesn't move with it? In SE when you drag your mouse from the first cell, the timeline moves along with you the mouse until you get to whatever cell you stop at HELP, its driving me nuts!!

MattBrown Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 If you are seeing 0.01 through 0.10 on the timeline, then you are zoomed very far in. I just tried it on my computer and it works for me, but the sequence grid gets repainted very, very quickly. Try zooming out - so you can see 5 to 10 seconds of your sequence. Also, make sure the settings under Tools > Preview Playback match what I've shown in the attachment. Dragging past the visible area does work, but it is slow. Why not zoom out? Or click on the first cell, then scroll to the last cell, then shift-click on it. That is much faster. If you are selecting an entire row, just right-click on the row and choose Select > Row from the pop-up menu. Another quick way to select is use the arrow keys while holding down the shift key. Hope that helps, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_b Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hey Matt I'm seeing the same issue. I'm zoomed out to about 14 sec on the screen and when I hit playback neither the timeline nor wave file move until I hit stop, then it changes to where the playback is. I matched your attachment and still no change. v S4.2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godman Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) Everything was I even zoomed out it's still not working.........., pretty hard (almost impossible) to get effects into the correct timing marks when your looking at the entre sequence, zoomed out.

MattBrown Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Please post a screen shot from Pixel Editor's Help > About screen - so I can see your configuration. If you would prefer to send it to me via PM, that is fine too. Thanks, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I click "More Reply Options", I see "Max. single file size 20MB" next to the "Choose files" button. Maybe my settings are different because I'm an admin? Anyway, what does the processor line say in Help > About? Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you try going to Tools > Preview Playback and disabling/unchecking "Fast Playback Marker"? Does that work? Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godman Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 Thanks Matt, that seemed to do the trick, working now.... What exactly is fast playback marker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattBrown Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Thanks Matt, that seemed to do the trick, working now.... What exactly is fast playback marker? When "Fast Playback Marker" is disabled, the entire sequence grid is redrawn every time the playback marker moves. When it's enabled, the playback marker is drawn using a different technique that uses fewer system resources, but is sometimes less reliable. I've made some changes for the next release that might allow you to re-enable "Fast Playback Marker". However, your computer is fast enough that you probably won't notice a difference.
