When using ‘track version’ on a track and select or create a version with no events, like a new one for example.
If you use ‘Remove empty tracks’ after, the tracks with empty versions selected will be deleted without prompt even if other versions contains events.
It makes me cry one time, and now I never use this function again.
Which is very handy with ‘render in place’ for me.
1- create a track
2- create 2 versions of this track : one with events, the other empty
3- select the empty one
4- select ‘remove empty tracks’
5- track’s gone
I post this in issue as I consider it is not a normal behavior and as I expected they apparently not consider this as an issue, so be careful.
Sometimes I make a lot of edits in a short period of time. If I didn’t read this post I might have concluded that I was responsible for (inadvertently) deleting tracks that contained data. Now I know better. Thanks for sharing!
I report this in ‘Issue Report’ in the forum.
I didn’t receive an approval.
Perhaps I didn’t follow exactly the rules.
I will repost paying attention to the rules.
Yes - but you need to have noticed. If you run a projects with hundreds of tracks and you were used to this function being reliable… you may not notice. Typical Steinberg half-arsedness.
