new transport layout arena 7

[Willum]

Hi all of you!
I love the new features and renovations in Arena 7. Except for the clip transportation options. I was wondering why you devided the playmodes into two groups instead of the previous seperate layout? I see there are more options with each mode. But doing a live hands-on fooling around (on my apc) between the modes is not possible anymore it seems. Or is there a solution for it? Since so far you've had a solution for everything (except for saving the world, or did I miss that one?) I was wondering if there is a way to tackle this one too?

Great to hear you like the new features in 7
We've moved the random option from the play directions to the play modes, because random is not a direction. You can also play footage backwards in random now. This was not possible in v6.

We're working on an issue where mapping duplicate shortcuts to a multi option target in Resolume - like the play direction- and switching between the mapping options with the same note is not working in 7.
Currently your option to work around this would be using different notes for the options.

Thanks again for explaining Zoltan, sorry for the late reply I love workarounds too!
But if I understood you well, the workaround you suggest means it must be possible to make shortcuts (keyboard or controller) by selecting the actual playmode and assign it to a certain key or knob? when I try that, it doesnt seem to work unfortunately. The first key selected stays active for all modes...

hi folks,
i am missing the (R)-button to make a shortcut on keyboard or controller as well.
even (loop)(bounce)(restart)(continue) for midi-controller
is there a solution in v7?
the old layout was good for my workaround (back)(pause)(forward)(random) on keyboard and midi
thanks for ideas
