Feature request: add plugin option to autofocus GUI editor window on track select #277
Comments
brought up as top-level windows immediately when a track is made current or highlighted (and Track / Auto Monitor is in effect). (GH #277; auto-focus plugin GUI editor window on track select) (EXPERIMENTAL)
maybe this (3ac5dd1) will do ? I dropped the discrete property/option in favor to raise only the plugin GUI(s) that are currently open (and probably covered by other windows). hth. |
Hi, thank you very much! I'll try to test it better when I manage to solve some trouble I had while compiling (I'm quite newbie with all this git and Linux stuff)... after many try and error, installing libraries, looking for errors, paths, docs, etc. now qtractor 0.9.18 runs but I see many libraries and plugins with "support disabled" in the Help menu... jackctl has dissappeared from the applications launcher and don't know how or why but my whole desktop environment changed completely... any clue is appreciated. Anyway, thank you very much for the tweak! |
you're welcome. re. whole desktop environment changed completely,... which brings me to the question: which linux distro? |
I was using Ubuntu Studio but I can still select it from the login screen. I added your PPA and now I see jackctl again, so nevermind. |
As commented here, it would be great that when you select one track the GUI windows of the plugins attached to that track were automatically brought on top of any other windows.
This would be very useful specially for live setups, avoiding having to manually find the GUI editor window on the laptop keyboard every time a different track is selected.
As one track can have many plugins = many windows, every plugin could have a property/option that if checked would make that plugin's GUI window autofocus when its track is selected.
I hope it's worth the effort, I'd appreciate.
Thank you!
