cut/paste not working properly

Post by jimhenry » Thu Jun 30, 2016 5:56 pm

hi- been using auria for a couple years and really love it.

just now i copied audio from two separate tracks, highlighted two different tracks where i wanted to paste the audio but it pasted the to the tracks where i grabbed the audio. if i do one track at a time it works fine. but trying to copy and paste on multiple tracks it's not recognizing where i want to paste it.

any thoughts? jim

if your copying from 2 or more tracks at a time I *think* you simple select the uppermost destination track only and paste there and it'll keep the same relative track distances in the pasted regions.

Like mtingle mentioned, the correct way to do it is to choose a destination track first, then do the paste. If this isn't working, it might be a bug.

hi rim- thanks for getting back to me. i apologize for bugging you on the holiday weekend. i forgot that you guys might be taking a few days off so sorry for the interruption.

i definitely understand the procedure for copy and paste. i have no problems with it for a single piece of audio, it works fine.

my issue is if i try the same procedure with audio from 2 tracks, instead of pasting the copied audio to the selected tracks it pastes them to the same tracks i just copied them from.

however, if i copy audio from 2 tracks, but only select only 1 track, the copied audio gets pasted to the selected track and the track just below it.

my question: is this how it's supposed to work? it seems to me i used to copy 2 regions then select 2 tracks where i wanted to paste them. did something change, was it always like this and i'm just not remembering, or is it a bug?

No problem, yes this is the intended behavior. When you copy multiple tracks, Auria does one of two things when you paste:

1. If you don't select any tracks when you paste, Auria pastes the audio into the same tracks you copied from.

2. If you choose a single track, Auria pastes the audio starting with the track you selected, then pastes the remaining tracks below it.
