Re: [Avid-L2] [BUGS] ??? in v 7.0.2

 




For anyone still following this thread,
here is a quick demo of the bug:
I tried Dave Hogan's suggestion of not making the single Effect Monitor enlarged to its maximum size, 
(setting it just one size smaller) and that *does* appear to have solved this annoyance.

Cheers,

Benjamin

Dave,
Thanks for that insight on the monitor behavior. I will give that a shot.
And you made me laugh with your comment about "Geezer Mode."
I thank you for that as well.
I lower the monitor resolution too, when I'm doing color correction.
And if it makes anyone feel any better, even the whipper-snappers I teach,
with much better eyes than mine,
love when I show them how to zoom in on a Mac:
System Prefs > Universal Access > Zoom > Options > 
Use Scroll Wheel with Modifier Key to Zoom.
I can't live without it!

Thanks again!
Cheers,
Benjamin

As to bug number two, I do a similar setup with workspaces, and my Effect Edit workspace has a single monitor.

I too was experiencing the phenomenon of it switching back to dual monitor when I switched away and back, though I found a workaround of sorts...

When setting the max size of the Single monitor window, it does a slight hitch, going wider at its full size.  I have found that if I set the size just below where it does that hitch, that the display reliably stays single monitor when switching back and forth to my effects edit workspace.

I am on a Mac Pro tower, running MC v7.02, Lion and Unity.

Another note is that I find that on some very high res monitors even the full size single monitor is not large enough for detail work in paint, tracking or animatte.  So I just reduce the overall resolution of the monitors, thereby making that maximum size bigger.  You go far enough, (768 height) you can almost fill the screen with a single monitor...something I like to call "geezer mode."

Thanks Terry.
I guess that bug goes hand in hand with the 
"fly up to the top left corner of the monitor" feature ;)

Cheers,
