Add new comment to Confusing behavior importing tracks with drag and drop

Permalink

good finding!

this is the expected behavior in general is the following for drag-n-dropping an audio or MIDI file:

  • over the tracks-view, functions as importing as new track and/or clip into the current session--this is working as advertised, right?
  • over anywhere else on the main-window should work as importing a new track and clip into a brand new session! if the current session is dirty or modified somehow, it gives you the chance to save the old session before opening the brand new with the imported file--your finding goes like that when dropping over the tracks-header specifically, it does actually import the file into the current session as a new track, marking it dirty/modified obviously before closing and opening the said brand new session with the imported file alone.

will see whether this minor bug gets squashed soon.

until then... thanks a lot.
