Now, the question is, if the Hub is the only window, which blocks the Shift key to work. I tried to open around 1000 different Cubase windows, I haven’t found any other blocker.
@Present , @horsetags , @sonicmayhem , could you please send a screenshot of all your screens, once this issue occurs? I’m going to search for another window(s), doing this.
Hi Martin, I suspect that consuming Shift should have to do with just the Hub, for example for avoiding multiple selection (by design I guess). Probably during development, the procedure described by @steve (opening using the file explorer while the Hub is there) was a bit overlooked and this may explain also this:
But sure, it’s reasonable to check if other windows consume this one too
As a workaround, once we have a project opened using the file explorer, we can go to to the Hub and choose File->Close. The opened project won’t be affected, it will just close the Hub.
For me, I use the Hub’s “File → Open” to open my projects. The Hub remains open in the background after the project has been opened.
In terms of the “Quit Cubase” button remaining, I somehow managed to make it occur last night, but didn’t think to report that behaviour. Today, the Quit Cubase button won’t appear, no matter what I do. I’ll report back if I manage to trigger that one.
I can also confirm this. I tried to use Shift+Right to select multiple automation events, to no avail. I followed the advice to close the Hub, and now the Shift+Right works as intended. I am puzzled as to how and why the Hub being open affects this… - Now, at least, I have found a way around it. Thanks for the tip!
FIXED In the latest update to Cubase 13 Pro, the Hub closes down automatically whenever you load or create a project, which solves the problem. Latest update is very stable, BTW.
It is unfixed for me. I keep having to close the Hub every single time, and sometimes it has the “Quit Cubase” button still showing, so I have to go into Window options then close it and it shows the “Cancel” button as normal.
After trying this again a few times, I noted that the Hub closes when you start a new project, and stays open when loading up an existing project into Cubase.
Thanks, yesterday it wasn’t working even when the HUB was closed. Today I checked again with the same project and it’s working fine. I’m happy, thanks!
