History Edit window (Ctrl+H) in .30 defaults with the scroll bar to the Top instead of Bottom when there is a scroll bar present (ie there are more actions than the window can show at once).
This bug was not present in .20 and got introduced in .30 .
Original post:
I updated to .30 a couple of days ago. Can someone still using .20 please confirm that when opening the Undo History (Ctrl +H), the view you have by default is your last action?
In .30 the view by default is the first action which is useless and time consuming because you have to scroll down every time to the bottom of your actions History to see what happened last.
Also, Steinberg dev team, please reintroduce localized undos like there was in C6.
All versions to my knowledge have been the bottom pic. .20 and .03 are same behavior.
I have never seen the Edit History default to your top pic illustration. That would not be correct behavior because what I think the user wants to see first are the last operations, and the chance to undo the last operations…therefore the user would have to scroll down if very many operations were executed.
Have you started in Safe mode with preferences disabled to see if you get this same behavior?
Localized undo s iirc, were available up to C9.5 or C10. I agree they should be returned. But it wasn’t like Steinberg decided to remove this for no reason. Often it’s one step forward, a half step back.
I checked with Cubase 10.5
There is a difference in 11.030:
When you open History and there are more items then fitting in the popup window
the last item is selected but there is no auto scroll down.
so you have to scroll manually.
I was testing with the history window open at the start, then adding operations and it works as intended.
However if you first execute a bunch of operations, more than what fits in the history window, then open the history window, you get the wrong behavior.
Not sure what you mean by that because it seems to me you are actually reproducing the issue since the Undo History window doesn’t scroll and focus on the bottom when opening it. The issue is still present in .40
You also get the same view as in the first screenshot right?
It should open scrolled down automatically so the user doesn’t have to scroll it. Yes, when scrolled the last action is down.
As it stands, every time I open the History Window, and assuming I have made a bunch of undo actions, I have to mouse over to the History Window and scroll to the bottom to see my last undo.
