4.1 appimage from arranger cannot copy/paste track or part of it

[revolverve]

Neither audio or midi track copy/paste work from arranger.
Copy/paste works in 4.
Only tested appimages,
From latest 4.1 , create a midi track,a part, select it,ctrl c bring the cursor to end of selected part ,ctrl v make the cursor return to beginning but nothing is copy.
Shortcuts within part editor does work.

Ehm, observed, how did that happen... It must be my fault (of course).
Most likely when I reworked the audio controller graphs a few months ago,
which included new copy/paste features.

Checking... Thanks very much for the report...

[terminator356]

Yup. For 5 months, missing an equals sign in functions.cpp: parseArrangerPasteXml().
Seems OK now. I'll close for now, please reopen if any more trouble.
Thanks!

Thanks for your work.

I ran into the same problem. Therefor I cloned MusE from Github and compiled it, but still cannot copy/paste. Paste moves the cursor to the beginning of the song, that's all it does. Am I doing something wrong?

This is the version I have:
Branch: master
Tag: 4.1.0-81-g76c08672-dirty
Commit timestamp: 2022-10-27 21:48:03 -0400

Indeed, trying it now copy/paste does not work with midi parts. For wave parts I can get it sometimes. Not sure what the triggering factor is.
Don't think I can figure it out at the moment, I'll reopen anyway.

I can add that drag copy (using CTRL+mouse) seems to work.

[drautzburg]

Can I create "clones" this way too?

[revolverve]

Hmmm , how do you plain know exact version release of muse in an appimage?

Let's check latest appimage; from 14 days ago.. copy paste works here on midi tracks or wave tracks.

Cannot help as i never succeeded at compiling muse.
What's your os?

[terminator356]

Wow, I can't believe it, it's broken again! It was working, I tell you!
I've got a situation room powered up (my bedroom) and a team of
interested parties (me and my cat) ready to work on it, and a tray
of stimulants (cookies and milk) at my disposal.
Hang in there...

@revolverve I'm using Linux. I did git clone http... with the url given on the github page and then ran compile-muse.sh. That's it.

Furthermore I checked that the missing equals sign that terminator356 mentioned was actually in the sources (it was in a file called functions.cpp). Apparently, more is required to fix this.

@Terminator: I didn't know about Ctrl+mouse to copy parts. Thanks for pointing this out to me. It turned a showstopper into a mere nuisance.

[spamatica]

Can I create "clones" this way too?

Yes, alt+ctrl+mouse creates a clone.
If it is already a clone ctrl+mouse will also make a clone

[terminator356]

Apparently I only tested pasting objects that were copied at position 0 to a new position.
Had I copied objects that were not at position 0 I would have seen it was not fixed.
What a pesky small section of code. For some crazy reason I had trouble with it the first time around too.

Should be OK now (no really!).
Tested OK copy and paste with multiple objects at different positions.

Hey you Musers ! Thanks very much for spotting that, again.

Sometimes I am so deep into some other fixes and don't have time to actually use the application
even in its simplest ways.

[drautzburg]

I recompiled MusE and copy/paste works.

[terminator356]

Good. I'll close for now. Please re-open if any trouble.
Thanks.

Debious here.. i miss somehow something ,great anyhow if solved .
It was an half of the context question;
how do you plain know exact version release of muse in an appimage?

./MusE-master-x86_64.AppImage -v
-> 10:40:24.422 Read configuration...
Config File </root/.config/MusE/MusE/MusE-seq.cfg>
MusE 4.1
just a curiosity, no pre-release version details ? not a problem.
I enjoy Muse , solving the timing problems is he hardest one , too much computer not enough music ; )
Thanks

just a curiosity, no pre-release version details ?
Good point we should make the build from master show that it is a development build
