Strange layout bugs in Music Maker 2022

_KI_ wrote on 7/21/2021, 10:29 AM

Every now and then, track view resizes itself to be "tiny box", without anyway of resizing to fill whole area. I.e. other component containers stay in place (bottom and left), but track view won't be filling whole area available for it. Trying to reset or change layout doesn't seem to fix, and so far I've found out only that program restart seems to be fix for this. This is rather problematic, since when this bug is hit (seems to be reasonably frequent), all the playback controls are also lost of course.

Hi

Try pressing Shift + F12 to optimise the Arranger pane.

If this does not work please post a screen shot of the Arranger pane when it 'minimises'.

To maximise the Arranger to full screen turn off all the indicated icons shown below, the Arranger pane is self adjusting - I work with the minimum number turned on as necessary.

Bug appears like this, pressing SHIFT + F12 does nothing. Pressing F4 to reset to standard layout, surely resets all the other containesr, but this track view still remains in it's miniscular state.

 

When resizing other container areas in attempt to trigger resize, this is got instead, i.e. garbage appears in track view's supposed container area.

 

Side note:

There's actually also second variant of resize issue, which doesn't bluntly prevent working, but is a annoying. In second variant, track view becomes vertically as small as it can get, and container area (keyboard, etc.) below it grows then to be very high.
