| Summary | 0007392: Reordering tracks in the editor view doesn't work | ||||
| Description | Neither dragging or using Ctrl + ? / Ctrl + ? works. In Ardour 5.8 track reordering works as expected, in 5.9 it seems to be locked down completely. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
|
|
Try the editor-[right]sidebar or mixer-[left]sidebar. If this is an older session, re-ordering them once there, should fix the issue. |
|
|
I had this happen on a newly created Ardour 5.9 session. When I manually disabled visibility of all tracks in the "Editor List" window and enabled it again for all tracks it resolved the problem. |
|
|
I can confirm that in projects created in 5.9 from scratch this problem doesn't occur. |
|
|
My problem (above) happened with a session created from scratch with 5.9 and no template was used. So the bug exists in 5.9 code also. |
|
|
Can you test if the problem is still present in 5.10-21-g506b478fe |
|
|
Is this still an issue with Ardour 6.0-pre1? |

Should dragging tracks in the editor view be working now or not? It does not work on 6.9 I would really like this feature. I always have to google how to reorder tracks if I have not been using Ardour for a while. |

> Should dragging tracks in the editor view be working now or not? Drag/Drop was never used to move tracks. In the editor: Select tracks, then ctrl + arrow up/down > I always have to google how to reorder tracks if I have not been using Ardour for a while. Have a look a Ardour's Menu > Track > Move Selected Tracks ... That shows the keyboard shortcuts. |

After using other track based software (in my personal experience) I would say dragging tracks is very common. I think most new users need to Google how to drag tracks in Ardour, I know I have had to a few times. > Drag/Drop was never used to move tracks. In the editor: Select tracks, then ctrl + arrow up/down Could it be considered to move tracks? Is there a logic or reasoning written somewhere on why it's not possible to drag and drop tracks? |
|
|
> Is there a logic or reasoning written somewhere on why it's not possible to drag and drop tracks? Simply because it is very hard and time-consuming to implement, nobody has yet volunteered to do it. You can drag/drop using the Track list in the Editor and MIxer sidebars though. |

|
> Simply because it is very hard and time-consuming to implement, nobody has yet volunteered to do it. Thanks, valid point! Let's hope this gets attention in the future. |
