This IS the Avid L2: Re: [Avid-L2] 8.3 trim mode broken

Not seen this behaviour but if trimming without sync locks, enter trim mode then alt(option)+Add Edit automatically adds edits to all filler tracks at the trim point. No need to activate the tracks. Hit delete before you leave trim mode and the Add edits are removed.

Subject: [Avid-L2] 8.3 trim mode broken

Hi All,
Since upgrading to 8.3 on the weekend I am hugely frustrated by new trim behavior.
Previous versions (including 8.2) allowed ripple trim even if not all tracks had roller icons. (All tracks synch locked)
Example: 9 audio, 3 video tracks. But at the point where I want to trim, only V1 and A1 are involved and there are no clips on other tracks in the vicinity. So I only select V1 and A1 and place yellow rollers appropriately.
It won't trim.
Now it seems ripple trim is only allowed if I make sure all tracks are involved and have rollers. Huge PITA because this is a really simple action that I am in the habit of doing all the time - which is the main reason I always synch lock the tracks.

Is anyone aware of a new setting or perhaps a console command that would restore previous behavior? Any help or insight greatly appreciated. Thanks.
