Automation FR: Preference to resolve automation scaling creating unwanted nodes

[mlib]

Here’s another thread on the topic.

Editing automation points - Move Vertically

What setting do I have to change in order to use the “Move Vertically” feature when editing Automation Lane data in the same manner as it appears in the Controller Lanes in the Key Editor? Current behavior of Automation Lanes: [Automation Lane] Desired behavior of MIDI CC lanes in the Key Editor: [CC Lane] Note that mouse cursor tool-tip labels the functions the same. I would prefer that this feature did not create unwanted automation points.

Unfortunately Steinberg refuses to see the issue with this and Martin will continue to refer to using the Info Line.

@Martin.Jirsak

If you change the values in the Info line, the nodes are not created.

If you use the exact same function in the MIDI Key Editor, no new nodes are created.
If you use Scale Vertically, it actually moves the nodes, not scale them. This whole feature on automation tracks is broken.

Automation Lanes - Move Vertically/Scale Vertically

Using the Move Vertically (mouse cursor turns to [image]) produces the exact same results as using Scale Vertically (mouse cursor [image]). In the MIDI Key Editor, editing events in the Controller Lanes, there is a difference between the two operations. Editing in an Automation Lane, the Move Vertically operation behaves as if it was scaling.
