Dorico 6 issue with latest VSL Synchron player

[fratveno]

In Dorico 6, it is not possible, using the latest VSL Synchron player, to change controllers in the CONTROL pane, the GUI is unresponsive. This does not happen in Dorico 5 and not in Cubase 14…

It might be the same issue from this thread:

VST instrument GUI elements not showing up

This issue only happens on Windows 11 and Dorico 6 (no issues with other DAWs). When you load a Synchron player instrument, right-clicking on the GUI doesn’t open the menu - attached screenshot from Macbook M2 (Dorico 6) where everything works. [Dorico bug]

And this one:

Problem with Dorico 6 and VSL Synchron Player

I just discovered a problem with the Synchron Player in Dorico 6. When I load a Synchron Player directly in Dorico 6, I can’t change the midi cc and the keyswitches in the player. I tried this in the Synchron Player in Dorico 5, in Vienna Ensemble Pro and in Samplitude Pro X4, there the problem doesn’t appear, only in Dorico 6. I have Dorico 6.0.1 and the latest version of Synchron Player. I write it also to VSL. I tested on a Windows 10 pc and a Windows 11 pc. The same problem appears.

It is indeed the same issue, thanks. Quite some time since I loaded SY directly in Dorico, apparently

I discovered with what Ulf discovered about this issue how to manage this thing, so that it is possible to get the pop up window before the window of the Synchron Player.
This works only if you have opened just one Synchron Player instance (of course beside the main window of Dorico) and you click on something in the Synchron Player that normally gives a pop-up menu, and you type ctrl + tab, then the popup menu appears. I hope this helps you.

Yes, having read Ulf’s post of May 21st I discovered that it was possible to first click normally, then do ALT-TAB back to the SY Window and drag it aside to reveal the menu. This seems to work consistently…

Just for the records, unfortunately this happens also on Windows 10.
