Now here's an unexpected delight for those who work on Windows and Mac. Either OSX, or Logic finally enabled the forward delete key in dialogs, so now the key actually deletes characters instead of inserting a box symbol! Not a big thing, but an annoyance since I switched to Mac umpteen years ago. James

I don't know how many of you folks liked the Mac "Windowshade" feature where a double-click on the title bar would collapse the window. Well, there's a haxie for OSX that allows you to do this again, called.....surprise .....Windowshade. It's great to have back again but (to get back on topic), it doesn't work with Floating windows in Logic OSX. If anyone thinks this would be useful, please reply and I'll post a request to Emagic about this. Regards - Colin

Just found a nice new trick for FM7 users: In LAMP/OSX, using the arrow keys allows you to move up/down/across the Library window to select presets. This didn't work in OS9 if the Plugin window was a float. Doesn't work for Absynth though..... Hopefully this doesn't get "fixed". Regards - Colin

Yep, being able to scroll around using the keyboard is supposed to be standard behaviour for FM7. Works under Windows, anyway. I seem to dimly remember some [emagic?] person saying that it was impossible for plugins to receive keypresses under logic, but presumably that's just because the plugin interface probably doesn't pass them on, FM7 (OTOH) seems to jump in and actively intercept keyboard input when it's the active window, instead of waiting for keypresses to be passed down to it through the hierarchy. :) Which is useful. The slight downside is that FM7 (on Windows at least) doesn't seem to allow any of the unwanted keypresses that belong to keys that it isn't interested in to "drop through" to the default key handler, so I found that the usual logic key functions were suspended while the FM7 screen was the active window. It would have been nicer if FM7 politely returned all the other key presses that it didn't want by default, so that logic had a chance to see them. That means (for instance) that if you have copied your favourite FM7 patches as logic plugin settings, you can't then browse through those using the computer keys that you've assigned to "next/prev setting", while FM7 is topmost. Tiny niggle. I wish that EXS24 and ES2 patches supported comment fields like FM7 does!

No more UPGRADE until all main bugs in 6 are fixed!!!. Waiting for these updates..... -- Best regards, Willian Aleman Latino Mastering Studio, Inc. Yonkers, N.Y. USA Tel: (914)776-1286
