Improvement suggestion

[wshaper]

Hi
I guess it's silent coding time, as everything is oh so quiet lately
(Sorry for the crap title, but i didn't find a relevant thread title)

One little thing that bothers me, is that when deleting a sample, once it's done, instead of staying at the "previous/current" position in the list, it jumps back to the top of the list.
It can be very annoying as you can get lost very easily, and it breaks the workflow (you have to scrol back, find the sample you were previewing before deleting another one, etc).

Thank you for taking it into consideration (even if it isn't the #1 FR/improvement suggestion of course

Oh, and by the way, please allow custom shortcuts (i tend to prefer a simple [del] for deleting a sample, than a combo of 2 keys)

I second this suggestion.

I have noticed this behaviour and it does make managing sample library / project file / deletion tasks more difficult as you have to scroll back down after a file is deleted and find where you were, which in a folder with hundreds of files, can be long.

IMO I would consider this quite a fundamental feature for what Resonic has been set out to do

Good luck with the coding. Hope all is going well.

Looking forward to testing the new Beta soon.

I completely overlooked this post (moved it to the suggestions forum).

I agree, this is a swear-a-lot priority issue reported by several people, which should be fixed in the first Beta. The Beta is due soon, at least I'm doing the best I can.

About the combos... true. Also, it's CTRL-DEL because DEL is reserved for a new delete feature (can be toggled). I shouldn't reserve stuff for future use that far in advance any more though. So that'll be fixed in the Beta too.

This! would make this software even more awesome.
My compliments to this software by the way Tom. was looking for a thing like this for years.

How do I become a beta-tester?

I will give you money now if I could get this working

I've just wasted over an hour looking for something as brilliant as this for dealing with samples as this annoyed the bejasus out of me

I need something to keep place in a list & kinda like now! ha

Hello by the way

Hello

We've worked around this in the upcoming Beta 1, i.e. version 0.6b, by keeping the position and disabling the deleted file. This will eventually be improved further in Beta 2 with full folder monitoring.

Yay now, this is good news!

Besides, CTRL-DEL will be DEL again. And regarding file management, there's a lot planned.

Wicked, thanks for the reply

hah I just shot across an email in case you didn't see this, ignore ignore ignore.

Man, think what you have done here is so good, real slick, works a charm, didn't want to waste any more time looking at alternatives, it's almost perfect.

when do you think you will be getting something public out?

Any time.

Too late

Glad you're liking it! The Beta work does improve on it a tiny little bit though.

The Beta should have been out two months ago, so I won't say "next week", although the plan is to get it out within the next two weeks to be honest. It's been too long and there's only so much one can do.

It's the hardest push so far, this whole last year working on it, and it should go swimmingly from then on, with updates and such. We'll release Beta 1, then continue with smaller more constant releases. Also, Resonic Pro is about to start a little after.

Great !
Thank you, looking forward to this

Yeah, that's fair, these things all to often can be rushed, I'm grown up enough to understand that

I'm def using this though, & keeping an eye out - even if atm I'm working around it by randomly deleting bits & cussing the screen, I probably shouldn't have had so many samples in the first place it's def not as many as some peoples I've seen but trying to whittle down 3000 (good quality) kickdrums into a folder of say 50 or so is a chore without a program like this anyway, I've not found one like it until today.

found some others that were a bit janky/clicky/rubbish but I'll pass on that - good work here Tom

I'll keep an eye out

Great !
Thank you, looking forward to this

for now I've been using an http://www.autohotkey.com/ script

Delete::^Delete
return

So it makes the delete key work as ctrl+del

Although I just forgot to turn it off and every time I pressed del writing a post it kept deleting whole words lol

edit: I could get around that by making it only work on the window focus of resonic but I couldn't be bothered, quick+dirty but worked
