I just noticed that when I turn on automation writing (w) in an effect auv3 and turn some knobs etc, keyframes are not written when playmode is inactive. While playing automation is written as expected.
Seeking the playhead even reads (r) potentially written values (as expected) in paused mode.
To aid in editing precise momentary value changes (f.e. On/off with sliders in an instant) writing (w) should be available in paused mode as well. Thanks
